Yarnscombe is a small village and parish in the Torridge area of Devon, England. It is situated approximately from Great Torrington and from Barnstaple. In the year 2001 census the population was recorded at 300.
==Parish Church== The parish church is dedicated to St Andrew. The nave, chancel and transeptal north tower probably date from the 13th century, while the south aisle and porch are 15th century. A vestry was added in 1846. The position of the tower is unusual for Devon. The Church contains some medieval tiles and glass. The 15th century altar-tomb on the north side of the chancel is that of John (or Nicholas) Cockworthy, of the estate of Cockworthy in the parish, and his wife. The church was repaired in 1852.
