This thread encouraged me to go for a wander around that neck of the woods on Sunday. What a pretty area it is with some cracking views, esp from the Old Telephone Exchange! I didn't get to see the £8m pile itself, but it was well worth the effort of walking up there. Does anyone know if there's a public footpath that goes tbrough the estate, one that might afford a view of Mamhead House?

Scandalous!! That's a 3p per litre increase!
Rumours, rumours, rumours. It's a good job everyone hasn't got your 'it's a waste of time' attitude!! Good luck to Lynne and the Dawlish Transition group and everyone else determined to DO something to improve Dawlish.
To put neilh's figure into perspective, a single water sprinkler uses approx 1,100 litres of water per hour. Hosepipes would use more.
