The old route in to Buckfastleigh from Buckfast over the hill. The short street quickly turns into Bridge Street at the junction ahead with Silver Street, before crossing the Mardle. Modern flats on the right are reflecting sunlight on to the wet tarmac.

Bridge Street, Buckfastleigh
From beside the Sun Inn at the far end of the view in Image, looking past the junction with Silver Street down to the Higher Town Bridge over the River Mardle. The houses rising beyond are on Market Street.
"On the corner of Bridge Street and Silver Street, built against 9 Bridge Street, is what appears to be a limestone bench. Whether designed as such it certainly has that potential use and is an interesting incidental feature." http://www.dartmoor-npa.gov.uk/li-buckfastleigh.pdf

Woollen mill in Buckfastleigh
This fairly modern post 1945 style industrial building, see also Image is no longer used as a woollen mill by the Axminster Carpets group of companies. Behind what appears to be an office area can be seen the weaving sheds which would have housed the looms and other large machines. The building appears to be currently used to store products for the adjoining Devonia Sheepskins factory Image

Launder, Buckfastleigh
Seen from Bridge Street, just above Higher Town Bridge over the River Mardle. Marked on the maps as an aqueduct, this carried water from the Old Mill Leat which powered the Town Corn Mill (which occupied this spot) and Churchwards/Sherwell Woollen Mill (which was further west).
