Crocker's Hole

Crocker's Hole from "Slain by the Doones" by R.D. Blackmore is about the river named Crocker's Hole and the lives of fellow students and fishermen Bude Light and John Pike. Excerpt: "The Culm, which rises in Somersetshire, and hastening into a fairer land (as the border waters wisely do) falls into the Exe near Killerton, formerly was a lovely trout stream, such as perverts the Devonshire angler from due respect toward Father Thames and the other canals round London."
