Totnes is worth a visit. The town is laid out pretty much as it was four hundred years ago, and there’s a tudor merchant’s house on the high street – sit in the herb garden and soak up the rays as they struggle to break through the Devon cloud cover.
Local opinion is that Dartmouth took over as the regional port, and then the industrial revolution and modern town planning passed Totnes by. Quite wealthy now, because it’s a centre for alternative health corporations. It’s difficult to drive there, but you get to see some beautiful villages and countryside on the way.
ps. I see you’re on twitter, but no RSS feed for the main site?

Great blog. Thanks.

Very pleasant, and much better than Winchester.
