Hittisleigh is a small rural parish just north-east of Dartmoor in the Mid Devon district of Devon, England, about south-west of Crediton. Its largest settlements are the hamlets of Hittisleigh and Hittisleigh Barton.
Once part of the ancient district of the Wonford Hundred, it is now administered by Mid Devon District Council and part of the Central Devon constituency. The name Hittisleigh may be derived from ''Hyttin's leah (from the Old English for wood/clearing). Alternatively it may come from the Old English hithisce'' (a family or tenants) and have meant 'tenant's place or pasture'. Although it is difficult to date the initial settlement, Hittisleigh is mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book, as a place with nine households. Hittisleigh is known as the birthplace of Samuel Bellamy, the 18th-century pirate.
