Edge (anciently ''Egge''〔Pole, p.141〕) is an historic manor in the parish of Branscombe, Devon. The surviving manor house known as ''Edge Barton Manor'' is a grade II * listed building,〔http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-88678-edge-barton-manor-branscombe-devon〕 situated on the steep south-facing side of a wooded valley or combe. ==Description==
The manor house is of the "U-Shaped" variety. A short section survives of the original moat.〔Listed building text〕 A circular staircase is contained in the angle of the north wing, to give access to the second floor newly created by the addition of a ceiling to the great hall. A stone splay of an upstairs window shows ancient graffiti incised drawings of sailing ships, thought to represent ships of the Spanish Armada becalmed near Branscombe between Start Point and Portland Bill on 1 August 1588. The logbook of the "San Martin", flagship of Captain-General Alonso Perez de Guzman, Duke of Medina Sidonia, records 130 ships of the Spanish Armada having been becalmed between Start Point and Portland Bill on Monday the 1st of August, 1588
