Netherton Hill, Drewsteignton
This is the view as you approach SX7390 : Village square, Drewsteignton from the Fingle Brook valley. "The entrance to the heart of the village from the north is made especially theatrical by the way in which the lane narrows dramatically and the space is filled by the large 3 storey Victorian edifice at the top. The contradiction of scale is a little confusing and makes the joy of the open square a more remarkable surprise for the visitor. It also acts as an effective ‘informal’ traffic calming measure.
