Huntly, the cream-painted building partly visible on the left, was the largest of several large houses in the village, according to the Bishopsteignton village website https://contact94599.wixsite.com/mysite/history . "In 1878 it was established as a hydro hotel, offering Turkish baths and massages" (and named Huntley on the 1889 and 1905 OS maps). At this end of the handsome building pictured in Image a high wide archway has been filled in above the ground floor window, suggesting that it was a coach house and stables, or it served the gardeners. Now it appears at least partly converted to residential accommodation.
