About Wilcove
Wilcove is one mile (1.6 km) north of Torpoint and one mile west of Devonport across the Hamoaze, the tidal estuary of the River Tamar. Traditionally the village had a strong agricultural sector, with two farms – Whitehall Farm and Home Farm – employing many people from the village. The village also enjoyed a long connection with the Royal Navy: HMS Defiance, a small naval base, was located in the village until the 1950s.
