About

Exwick is a residential suburb situated directly northwest of Exeter city centre, separated by the River Exe. The area is primarily composed of housing estates, ranging from post-war terraces to more modern developments, with local shopping facilities centred along Exwick Road. Its western edge is bordered by the Exeter to Barnstaple railway line, which provides a distinct boundary. The presence of several schools, including St Thomas High, contributes to the ward's community feel.

A notable green space is Exwick Cemetery, offering quiet grounds on the hillside. The ward's topography slopes upwards from the river, providing views back towards the city from its higher streets. Exwick is connected to the city centre and beyond by main bus routes, with the M5 motorway easily accessible to the east. The area functions largely as a practical residential base for the city.
