About

Exmouth Town ward encompasses the historic core and primary commercial centre of this coastal settlement. The area is centred around the Strand, a thoroughfare lined with shops, services, and civic buildings that leads directly to the estuary mouth. Residential streets of varied character radiate from this hub, containing a mix of architectural styles from different periods in the town's development. The ward's boundaries are largely defined by major roads and the railway line to the west.

The geography is largely flat, with the land gently sloping towards the River Exe estuary. A defining feature is the extensive Manor Gardens, a formal green space with floral displays and a bandstand, situated between the town centre and the seafront. The area is fundamentally shaped by its position at the confluence of the river and the sea, with the estuary's tidal mudflats visible from points along the waterfront.
