Fore Street, Kenton
The A379 just east of The Green, climbing up a terrace of the Kenn valley. This is an awkward stretch of a busy main road for pedestrians and motorists. The zigzag white lines indicate the proximity of a pedestrian crossing behind the camera. On the left is the former Devon Arms, since 2007 the Chi oriental restaurant.

Looking in the other direction from the same spot as Image, with the pedestrian crossing mentioned and a sharp right bend in the A379 as it runs past The Green. On the left is the Dolphin, surviving as a pub unlike the Devon Arms almost opposite. On the right is a hair and beauty salon.

The Green, Kenton
From Teignbridge's Conservation Area Character Appraisal for Kenton at http://www.teignbridge.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=3768&p=0 : "a fine example of planned village open space ... The most significant change to the layout of the village centre followed a major fire in 1856. As part of the re-development the triangular green was created and the cross erected in 1888. Views of the Church from Fore Street were opened up and framed by the new buildings. Consequently the eastern end of Church Street is very different to its former arrangement. The 1840 tithe map shows tightly packed cottages which suggests a more intimate and typically Devonian village streetscene than exists today. In its place however, the village gained a distinctive, Victorian development with a plan which emphasises the Church at the heart of the community."
