The Ilfracombe to Barnstaple line was opened in 1874 by the London and South Western Railway.

The branch opened as a single-track line and was upgraded to a double-track in 1889.

Named trains such as the Atlantic Coast Express and the Devon Belle both started and terminated at Ilfracombe.

Much of the line is still visible today, and sections of it have been converted into public cycleways.
