Pennsylvania Park, Exeter
The "piece de resistance of Regency Exeter", say Cherry and Pevsner of this tall terrace built in 1821. This view is from Beech Avenue of the eastern end of the six houses; these have a section set back to give the illusion of being detached. They command a fine view over the city.

1-6 Pennsylvania Park, Exeter
The "pièce de résistance of Regency Exeter, built in 1821 and apparently designed by John Brown of Exeter for Joseph Sparkes, a Quaker banker who lived in one of the houses, and named the terrace after William Penn's New England settlement". Only six of the eight planned houses were built, and together with other alterations it means that as a whole the effect now is "neither as intended, nor as built", even if each house no doubt remains a des res.
