Honiton is a town in Devon, England. Mentioned in the Domesday Book as Honetone, meaning a farmstead of a man called Huna, Honiton is situated on the River Otter, 17 miles North east of Exeter. It is an important market town known for its lace and its Honiton pottery. The population of Honiton was about 11,200 at the time of the 2001 Census. Honiton more than doubled in size between the 1960s and 2005 with most development happening south of the Exeter to Waterloo Station (London)railway line. The size of Honiton in 2005 was approximately 3.2 kmē. Further development will be limited as Honiton borders the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) to the south and the Blackdown Hills AONB to the north and east. AONBs have the same level of protection as National parks of England and Wales which restricts new developments.
