Venn Farm A beautiful old thatched farmhouse on the slopes above the Teign valley. Seen from the lane between Bridford and Bridfordmills. "Probably early C16 origins, remodelled in the late C16/early C17, roof raised late C18. Whitewashed rendered cob and stone rubble; thatched roof, half-hipped at left end, gabled at right end; end stacks and axial stack, all with brick stafts; right gable end weatherboarded." http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=85578&mode=adv . http://www.mit.edu/~dfm/genealogy/sercombe.html mentions that in 1901 a Joseph Sercombe lived here "with his wife Mary, their children Wilfred, Charlie, Bessie, Polly, Joseph, William, David, John, Percy, and Ruth, and carter Frank SERCOMBE (his fourth cousin)".

Field near Lower Hole. The view over the gate to the left referred to in 580852. Woodland seems to have encroached considerably into this field, which slopes to the small stream that runs between the three farms at Hole. The woodland beyond is around Little Tor.
Field boundary near Blackingstone. A gentle low bank suffices as a field boundary between these fields by the lane shown in 1291130.
Meadow in the Teign valley In its deeply incised meandering course, the valley contains level areas of flood plain, and this tempting meadow has obviously been used for outdoor activities. To the left rises St Thomas Cleave Wood.

A grand hotel with lovely views however whilst the public areas are rather splendid, some areas do look a little tired and in need of updating. This didn't detract from our stay though. Plentiful and varied breakfast and a great location

Exeter Cathedral
In the 2nd century the Romans built a sturdy wall around Exeter, which lasted for centuries. However in the 4th century Roman civilization began to decline. The populations of the towns fell. The last Roman soldiers left Britain in 407 AD and the Roman way of life slowly disappeared. People drifted away from the towns to the countryside and returned to a simpler way of life.
