Birthplace of Saint Boniface around 680 AD and cathedral seat of Devon from 909 until the bishop's see transferred to Exeter in 1050, Crediton carries a devotional history rare for a market town of its scale. The town lies 7 miles north-west of Exeter in Mid Devon, occupying the narrow vale of the River Creedy between two steep hills, its older north quarter distinct from the newer south and east settlement.
Families seeking school places in Crediton find a compact primary catchment; Morchard Bishop, to the north, draws those looking for smaller village primaries. Landscore sits within the newer south side. The Tarka Line carries passengers to Exeter in around twenty-five minutes.
