Devon is a varied county, rich in history and heritage and justly popular with tens of thousands of visitors every year. A great many curious and unusual buildings, objects and landscape features have survived the centuries here. This book is a guide to over 130 of these remarkable sights in the heart of the West Country, including a 'stink pipe' at Bovey Tracey, the Coffin House at Brixham, the cliff railway at Lynmouth, the Devil's Stone at Shebbear, the narrowest street in the world at Exeter and a pillory at Hemyock Castle, as well as curious pub names, an epitaph to a cat and a memorial to a pig, among many others. Numerous illustrations are included, together with a map and location details.
