This view of the interior clearly shows the quality of the misericords on the choir stalls to both left and right. Beautiful carving is a feature of this church.
Dawlish began as two discrete hamlets, one inland by the parish church and another on the seashore, but quickly grew as the first visitors arrived to holiday in the late 18th century.
The lifeguard keeps a careful eye on the party of swimmers, whilst another crowd gathers around the Punch and Judy show (centre left).
Nurses were unmarried and there were strict regulations governing their behaviour, both on and off duty. Gentlemen callers were not allowed beyond the foyer, under any circumstances whatsoever.
Another view of the busy quay. Where the ships are tied up there is now an extended car park.
Here is another view showing the popular sun shelter. With the tide in, small boats are ready to go out to sea. The Western Esplanade was not widened until 1914.
The brick-built buildings look as if they will last for another century at least. However, the huge Allied Flour Mill now stands on the site and very little of this scene remains.
However, there was strong opposition to the proposal from both Barnsley and Huddersfield.

Not far away is another of East Devon's prehistoric

The town is also a centre for another type of railway - the restored Severn Valley Railway with its steam engines.
Another view of Chideock Post Office (right), looking eastwards to Mervyn House, Staddlestones, and Rose Cottage (centre).
Ye Olde Blue Bell and Ye Olde Cabin both date from the 15th century.
This is another postern gate surviving from the Town Wall, which was built to defend Richmond against Scottish raids shortly before the Battle of Bannockburn.
On the right are the old Post Office and the red brick and pedimented agricultural hall of 1882, both now occupied by Anglia Television.
This picture gives another impression of the wonderful feeling of space engendered by the Peak District.
Bradpole is another ancient West Dorset village, now overshadowed by its larger neighbour Bridport.
Note that the High Street traffic is still two-way, as it continued to be for another 15 years or so.
The monument here is obscured by a cabman's shelter (better than the public convenience that replac- es it now). The Corn Exchange entrance beneath its clock dated from 1854.
Another five years have passed since F9087 (above) was taken, and the main difference is in the appearance of the North Camp Hotel.
Another view from Cromford Bridge of Willersley Castle, this time seen peeping above the trees.
Another view of the beach at Canvey Island shows children busily playing around the many deckchairs. Most of the older holidaymakers are well wrapped up against the cold.
