A view from Empsons Hill. The building in a sad state towards the left is also shown at SX9576 : The Old Vicarage, Weech Road, Dawlish. It is listed as "13, Weech Road and former gig house" LinkExternal link , "gig" as in "coach". See LinkExternal link . LinkExternal link*/LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) has the following "A recent inspection has revealed that the main building and outbuilding still require works to make them wind and weatherproof and prevent collapse. The main building has holes in the roof, dry rot, unsecured open windows and doors and internally has part of the first floor missing. There is running water through the roof and rising and penetrating damp. The unoccupied outbuilding is constructed of cob with slate roof, historic trusses and stable pavers. It is a good example of a simple but historic curtilage building. Sections of the outbuildings cob wall have degraded to an extent that partial collapse is possible."

To the right is St Gregory's church, grade II* listed LinkExternal link .
