Events at Clovelly
Keeping the history alive
Clovelly Events are organised and designed to celebrate all aspects of the village and its history.
Lentsherd on Shrove Tuesday. Children run down the cobbles, dragging clattering tin cans. The aim is to chase bad spirits away and drive the devil into the sea.
Find the Easter Chicks is a popular event for children with prizes.
