Small 20 page paperback booklet, written by the late Sir Atholl Oakley.

"This unique book traces the pedigree of the Doones to May Queen of Scots and tells you who they were, and why they came to Exmoor. It gives you the indisputable evidence that Plover’s Barrows Farm is where Oare House now stands, who Jan Ridd was, and how Blackmore came to write the story."

Sir Atholl Oakley was a Lynton resident and this booklet has been sold for many years through Lynton Post Office. Recently reprinted for the first time, it is now also available through us on the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway - but you won’t find it anywhere else!
