Awliscombe Lower Mill On River Wolf
A Memory of Awliscombe.
I'm an Awliscombe Loaring descended from at least 2 generations of Loarings who operated the mill c1700 on the River Wolf just down the lane to the southwest of the Honiton Inn in Awliscombe. I'm hoping someone knows how the River Wolf got its name. There are 2 other Rivers Wolf in Devon, and I see online that at least one of them is not named for the handsome canine creature. There are giant otters still found in South America called river wolves. This particular River Wolf does flow into the River Otter. So – how did Awliscombe's River Wolf get its name?
