Dawlish
Dawlish is an English seaside resort town and civil parish in Teignbridge on the south coastline of Devon, 12 miles (19 km) from the county town of Exeter and also the larger resort of Torquay. Its population of 12,345 in 2001 rose to around 16,000 by 2018, and was anticipated to expand strongly in coming years, as several huge housing estates were incomplete, generally in the north as well as eastern of the community. It had actually expanded in the 18th century from a little fishing port into a widely known seaside hotel, as had its close to neighbour, Teignmouth, in the 19th century. Dawlish is located at the outlet of a small river, Dawlish Water (additionally called The Brook), in between Permian red sandstone high cliffs, and is fronted by a sandy beach with the South Devon Railway sea wall as well as the Riviera Line railway above. Behind this is a main public park, The Grass, through which Dawlish Water flows. Instantly to the south-west of Dawlish is a headland, Lea Mount, with Boat Cove at its foot as well as Coryton Cove, the furthest part of the coastline accessible by the seawall course behind it. There is a food booth there. To the north-east, via the coastline or seawall, the shore can be complied with for some 2 km to Langstone Rock and also the resort of Dawlish Warren beyond. Dawlish is additionally recognized for its black swans (Cygnus atratus), presented from Western Australia, which deal with other exotic waterfowl in a tiny metropolitan haven on Dawlish Water. There are a number of attractions in and around the town, such as beaches, safari mini-golf, a waterfowl centre, a recreation centre with a pool, a countryside park, and also the Dawlish Museum.
