Where to stay in Efford
How the choice of base plays out on the ground.
Two churches and a memorial. That is the whole of what the record fixes in Efford, so a visitor sleeping here is choosing a residential quarter of Plymouth over the streets where the city keeps its rooms. The Plymouth Second World War Memorial To The Civilian Dead is the one monument.
St Paul's Church closes the list.

About Efford
What are the main landmarks in Efford?
Efford's heritage comes to three sites. The Church of St Edward King of the West Saxons carries the longest name on Efford's list, St Paul's Church the shortest, and between the two stands the Plymouth Second World War Memorial To The Civilian Dead. St Edward and St Paul supply the dedications.
The memorial supplies the one dated event, the Second World War.
What is the history of Efford?
Efford has no start year in the file. What Efford holds instead is a war record: the Plymouth Second World War Memorial To The Civilian Dead names the civilian dead of the city, and it stands out in this district rather than in the middle of Plymouth. St Edward King of the West Saxons gives one church its dedication.
St Paul's Church is the second. Beyond those three entries the record for Efford is silent, without a charter year, without an event and without a founder attached to the name.
Where is Efford?
Efford is one district of Plymouth, holding the Church of St Edward King of the West Saxons and St Paul's Church within its streets.
