Lendrick is one of the large houses along Forder Lane. Residents looked out over extensive gardens on the south-facing hillside down to the Teign estuary. The name Lendrick appears on maps from 1964. In 1889 it was Long Marsden. The Bishopsteignton village website https://contact94599.wixsite.com/mysite/history recounts that as a young architect John Nash worked in Devon; between 1800 and 1804 he was based in Dawlish. Lendrick is thought to be either designed by Nash or built in Nash style. However, Historic England's grade II listing makes no mention of Nash https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1147579
