About

Braunton East ward encompasses the eastern portion of the village of Braunton, a large settlement north of the River Taw. The area includes residential streets, local shops, and community facilities, with the Braunton Academy secondary school situated here. The landscape transitions towards the inland edge of Braunton Burrows, a massive dune system.

The ward's character is shaped by its proximity to the Taw-Torridge estuary and the vast, protected dunes. A specific local feature is the presence of the Braunton Marsh Nature Reserve, an important habitat for wading birds. This low-lying area is defined by its connection to both the village community and the expansive, undeveloped natural environments at its boundary.
