On the left, modest bungalows perhaps date from the early years of Kingsteignton's expansion. Who knows if the property is the home of a local resident, or a second home, or a holiday let. A late twentieth-century trend is illustrated: a front garden has become a parking space. On the right is the entry to Leat Close, a much more recent development. The house down the hill looks old: the massive tall central chimney is a clue. It's possible that this form reduced the risk of sparks setting light to a thatched roof.
