Description



BRIXHAM

SX9256SE THE QUAY, Lower Brixham
1946-1/11/230 (East side)
Turnpike stone on inner edge of
pavement, under Old Fish Market

GV II

Turnpike stone. About 1838. Short, round-headed piece of
Devonian limestone, its west face incised with the inscription
END OF THE DARTMOUTH & TORQUAY TURNPIKE. The stone appears to
be in roughly its original position; it was certainly there
before the Old Fish Market was rebuilt in late C20.
