Coldridge or Coleridge[1] is a village and parish in Devon, England. It appears in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Colrige, which is thought to mean ‘the ridge where charcoal is made’.[2] It has a church dedicated to St Matthew dating from the 15th and early 16th century which is a Grade I listed building.[3][4]
In 2021, investigations started as to whether John Evans, a medieval lord of the manor buried in the church, may in reality have been the missing Edward V, one of the princes in the Tower, whose mother Elizabeth Woodville travelled to Devon in 1484 and whose son Thomas Grey owned land at Coldridge. The church contains an unusual stained glass portrait of Edward V, and other alleged clues. The investigations have been set up by writer and historian Philippa Langley, and follow suggestions originally made in the 1920s by local historian Beatrix Cresswell.[5][6]
The name "Coleridge" is borne (among others) by a number of people associated with Eton College, including
Sir Nicholas Coleridge, currently (October 2023) the provost-elect
Frederick John Randolph Coleridge (vice-provost 1967-79)[7]
Coleridge House, a former boarding house demolished in 1937[8]
