Ilfracombe sits in Devon and takes its pollen pattern from the South West England forecast region. Around 11,000 people live here. Hay fever sufferers should track all three pollen types from March through August.

Tree pollen here is dominated by oak, ash and hornbeam, with grass led by ryegrass and cocksfoot and weeds by nettle and dock.

Tree pollen typically peaks in April. Grass counts are highest from June. Mild winters bring tree pollen forward; coastal breezes can keep the grass count down on the worst days.
