South Zeal

South Zeal is a village on Dartmoor, in Devon, UK.

It has a Church of England chapel and a Methodist chapel. The church is situated in the smaller South Tawton village, down the road, for which the parish is named. The differences have their basis in history when South Tawton was a manor and South Zeal was a village in that manor, where the manor hall was situated.

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or zeal:

    The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.
    C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)

    Now that I have written many words,
    and let out so many loves, for so many,
    and been altogether what I always was
    a woman of excess, of zeal and greed,
    I find the effort useless.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
