History & geography

History

Heart's Delight was settled in the late 18th century. The earliest reference to Heart's Delight in the Trinity parish records is the birth of Elizabeth Wolfrey, daughter of William and Elizabeth, in 1785. The first settler is believed to have been a man named Bryant, and the first official Census in 1836 recorded a population at 167, 165 Protestant Dissenters and two Roman Catholics. The font in the Anglican church was donated by the vicar of Kingskerswell, Devon, England, in about 1893. Construction of two new concrete bridges in the community was undertaken in 1963.
