BOLTBURY, a hamlet in Malborough parish, Devon; on the coast, between Bolt-Tail and Sawmill Cove, 4½ miles SW of Kingsbridge. Boltbury Down here falls precipitously to the sea; and a chasm, at the highest part of its sea-cliff, bears the name of Ralph's Hole, and was long the retreat of a noted smuggler.
(John Marius Wilson, Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales (1870-72))
