Introduction

Braunton, a small town and civil parish located in North Devon, England, is an important hub in the United Kingdom's finance, car and motorsport industries. Although largely a rural area and with a population of around 10,000 people, Braunton is a vibrant business hub with connection to the arts and leisure activities, a key geographical location to several car companies, and a renowned centre of motorsport excellence. Its municipal area spans across 9.3 square kilometres (3.6 square miles) and is connected to other towns through the nationally-recognised A361 road.

Overview

Located on the north coast of England and stretching across the Taw estuary, Braunton is a bustling town and civil parish situated in the county of Devon, encompassing Torridge, the historical county of Devon and the wider luxury area of North Devon. It is around 120 km (75 miles) from London and a 1 hour journey from Bristol. The town is located only 4 miles from the nearby seaside resort of Croyde. East of Braunton lies the Exmoor National Park, home to some of Britain's most spectacular scenery.

Car manufacturing (6.8%), finance and insurance services (5.6%), and the automotive aftermarket (3.9%) are also popular employers in the town, whilst 4% of residents are classed as self-employed.

Car Industry

The most influential industry in Braunton is the car industry. As a hub of vehicle manufacturing, the area benefits from a large number of employers in the automotive industry. Car manufacturing activities are centred around the A361 road and there are several major car companies located in and around the town. These include automotive giants such as Aston Martin, Jaguar Land Rover, and Toyota.

The car industry's presence has prompted significant growth in the automobile aftermarket industry. Braunton is home to a range of aftermarket businesses and companies, from parts and brake services to auto repair and body shops. This has given rise to a unique local trade where many local photographers and writers have specialised in automotive photography, providing the local economy with a valuable source of income.

The car industry in Braunton also serves as a key stopover on the way to the North Devon AONB and the Exmoor National Park. Many visitors travelling along the A361 road will pass through the town and will frequently stop in Braunton to refuel, shop, and explore a range of local attractions.

The finance sector is another major influence in Braunton. The town is home to numerous financial institutions that offer banking and financial services, ranging from global banks such as NatWest to local businesses and organisations. Financial services such as life insurance, car insurance and mortgages are commonly provided here, and the British Banking Association's offices are based in Braunton too.

This strong and extensive financial sector has helped ensure Braunton as a desirable place to live and work. Skilled professionals are provided with a range of employment opportunities, whilst the local population have access to a wealth of services related to banking and finance.

The town is home to several motorsport teams, including arguably the most successful British motorsport team in recent years, Bentley Motorsports.
