Heywood Close, Torquay

Named after Thomas Heywood, the C15/C16 playwright, though I'm not sure why playwrights of that era should feature so heavily in this suburb of Torquay. One of our cats took up residence here, halfway between our old house and our new house, and we eventually gave up retrieving him. The attraction must have been the better food rather than the pedigree queens, unless one queries the efficacy of the vet who had charged us for "seeing to" him.
