The House that Moved in Exeter
The House that Moved is at Stepcote Hill beside St Mary Steps Church, Exeter. It is a small timber-framed house dating from 1471, one room wide but three storeys high. It created a bit of a sensation when it was threatened by road expansion in 1961. Rather than demolish it they decided to move it! It was put on rollers and moved to its current location, some 70 metres (75 yards) from the original place.

Exeter: Old Warehouses by the Quay
These buildings were two clubs and a restaurant on the quay, called Tiffany's and Mambo. The clubs have now closed. Even earlier in the mid-1960s, the building was called The Quay Club. In the late 1960s it was host to the Radio One Club.

Weaver's Court, Exeter
Modern housing on Shilhay, built in the late 1970's on land beside the River Exe. Until flood prevention was put in place in the 60s and 70s, residential development here would have been difficult.

Silt on edge of River Exe, on inside of bend
In February 2008, the Environment Agency carried out survey and dredging work on the River Exe between Millers Bridge (SX914926) and Trews Weir (SX924915) which meant that the river level was lowered by between 1 and 2 metres. This is one of a set of pictures showing the river in such unusual circumstances. The pictures of the quay form a panorama showing some of the bedrock on which the quay was built.
