Dawlish
Dawlish is a town and civil parish in Teignbridge on the south coast of Devon in England, 12 miles (19 kilometres) from the county town of Exeter. It had a permanent resident population of 12819 at the time of the 2001 Census, which reduced to 11312 at the 2011 census. During the course of the 18th century, it grew from a modest fishing port to transform into a prominent seaside resort. Dawlish is located at the outlet of a small river, Dawlish Water, between Permian red sandstone cliffs, and is fronted by a sandy beach with the South Devon Railway sea wall and the Riviera Line railway above. Behind this is a main public park, The Lawn, through which Dawlish Water streams. Directly to the south-west of Dawlish is a headland, Lea Mount, with Boat Cove at its foot and Coryton Cove, the most remote part of the beach reachable by the seawall path, behind it. To the north-east, using the beach or seawall, the coast can be followed some 2 km to Langstone Rock and the resort of Dawlish Warren beyond, although this way is obstructed at extreme high water. Dawlish is also recognized for its black swans (Cygnus atratus), brought in from Western Australia, which reside with other unusual waterfowl in a modest urban sanctuary on Dawlish Water. Dawlish railway station is positioned in the town centre next to the beach. It is served by trains to several stations in Devon, and to London and more afield. The line is noted as one of the most unforgettable stretches of track in Britain for its natural appeal.
