Rear of houses in Buckeridge Road from West Buckeridge
Teignmouth's suburbs are on a generally south-facing steep hillside (or valley side). It is common for rear access to houses to be at first floor level, as here. West Buckeridge follows the contours: perhaps it was laid out in the days of horse-drawn traffic. Its modern neighbour, The Mount, charges up the steep hillside. Would Teignmouth's suburbs have spread as far as they have without the car and the bus?

Bungalow between semis, Higher Brimley
Two features of Teignmouth's older suburbs are seen here: the well-connected telephone poles that double as lighting columns; and the piecemeal nature of older residential development. In Higher Brimley there are detached, semi-detached and terraced houses in combinations of one, two and three storeys. Here, the bungalow (at a guess) pre-dates the semi-detached houses on either side. A third feature half-seen is the upslope-downslope relationship, described more fully at http://www.geograph.org.uk/p/3783556
