Drewsteignton history
Spinsters’ Rock at Shilston, within the parish, is a Neolithic chambered tomb dating from around 3000 BC. Later, an Iron Age hill fort, now known as Prestonbury Castle, was developed on the end of a prominent ridge.
Manor
The manor of Taintone is listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as the 107th of the 176 Devon landholdings of Baldwin the Sheriff, otherwise known as Baldwin FitzGilbert and Baldwin de Meulles. In the reign of King Henry II (1154-1189) it was held by a certain “Drew”, also known in Anglo-Norman French as Drew de Teignton, Latinized to Drogo, from whom the manor derived its distinguishing suffix. In mediaeval times, the village was important as a wool producing area, and there were also limestone quarries and a small tin mine.
