Sign for the White Hart, Buckfastleigh
This sign is a combination of heraldry and history. The White Hart was on Richard II's coat of arms and he could be a belligerent and aggressive sort of chap. An innkeeper who displayed this sign was saying 'Don't burn my inn, I'm on your side'. Such was the level of toadying at this time, that the name White Hart became synonymous with inns, and people continued using it longer after Richard II was gone and it is still used today.

Plymouth Road, Buckfastleigh
Looking from the forecourt of St Lukes Church to some attractive Victorian villas in Plymouth Road at the junction with Bossell Road. Behind the railings in front of the houses runs a clear stream, it's not visible in this image as it is some 4 feet below the road level and is culverted on either side of this stretch, no doubt it eventually runs into the Mardle and then the River Dart. The stream is the Town Mill Leat, and can be seen in front of the cottages in
