Red Rock/Langstone
1 Dec 2004

I've been looking at the picture gallery on this website, and see there are pictures of the Langstone, captioned Red Rock. Quite a few people call it this, probably because of the Red Rock Cafe, but its actual name is the Langstone. Red Rock is the other side of Dawlish, in Coryton Cove. In fact the Langstone has only been a separate outcrop of rock since 1845. Before that, it was Langstone ...

There may be something coming up in the current BBC programme 'British Isles A Natural history' shown on Wednesday evenings. I know that Alan Titchmarsh was filming in Dawlish - he stayed at the Rise during his visit, and the film crew were drinking in the Swan. Presumably they were filming this programme, so might be worth watching to see what comes up.
