New Road looking east
New Road looks like a fairly old suburban road. It runs around the contours, mostly, connecting the Exeter Road and the Dawlish Road and forming the upslope boundary of Teignmouth's Regency and Victorian suburbs. In the centre of the picture is an average-sized Monterey Cypress (Cupressus macrocarpa), a species that grows well on the southwest's coasts.

The view down Maudlin Drive, Teignmouth
I'd taken one of the town buses for the steep mile up from the town centre to these hillside residential roads, turned round and was stunned by the view, the reflected sun and the procession of cloud shadows over the sea. In the distance is Thatcher Rock and Hope's Nose, the northern tip of Torbay. Closer to the camera is the Ness across the River Teign, and Teignmouth pier on the left.

Large house of cream brick, corner of New Road and Stapleford Drive
It is believed that the cream bricks seen in Teignmouth and elsewhere where made at a brickworks in Kingsteignton using the fine clay from the Bovey Basin. The bricks were hard and strong, more like a ceramic. There are many houses in the area of orange brick that use courses of cream brick for strength at corners and for door and window surrounds. Far fewer houses are built of the cream brick, with details in orange brick or the pale grey Devonian limestone.
