City walls, Roman Walk, Exeter
The angle of the sun brings out the different types of stonework in this stretch of wall on the fringe of the Princesshay development. The darker layer must be volcanic trap, with sandstone beneath.

Jewellers, Princesshay, Exeter
The corner of Roman Walk (behind the camera) and Bedford Street, which actually forms a fairly large open space. The jewellers, Carol Anne, in whose window the open space is reflected, is an independent shop, which makes a nice change in a city reputed to be the worst clone town in the UK http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clone_town .

Plaque on Debenham's. Exeter
The plaque, dating from 1897 and now placed on the wall of an alcove on the side of Image, originally graced the lamented Bedford Circus, pulled down after being damaged in the war, and records its previous history. As the plaque explains, Bedford House was the birthplace in 1644 of Henrietta Anne Stuart, daughter of Charles I. The location's history is more fully documented at http://www.exetermemories.co.uk/EM/bedfordhouse.html .

Exeter Phoenix in Princesshay, 1980
The symbol of the phoenix was used to represent the reconstruction of Exeter after the second world war. The text does not refer to any nationality, simply referring to "enemy action". A similar text was used for other plaques which marked reconstruction, a reminder of the desire for peace and reconciliation.
This sculpture appears to have been lost in the redevelopment of Princesshay.
