About Quaker House
Quaker House at Foales Court is the meeting place of the Religious Society of Friends in Newton Abbot. Quaker worship follows the practice of silent waiting, with those gathered speaking only as they feel led, a form quite unlike the services of the surrounding churches. Meeting times are not recorded in this listing, so this page or enquiry with the meeting is the way to confirm when Friends gather. Newton Abbot is a busy market town in south Devon, and the quiet of the meeting house offers a marked contrast to its streets. The Friends' presence there continues a long Quaker thread in the religious life of Devon.
