About

Seaton ward encompasses the coastal town of Seaton and its immediate surrounding rural parishes. The area is defined by its position at the mouth of the River Axe, where the river meets Lyme Bay. The town itself is linear, following the main road along the seafront, with a mix of residential streets and local commercial services. Inland, the ward includes agricultural land and the villages of Colyford and Colyton, which are connected historically and administratively.

The town's seafront is dominated by a long, pebble beach and a functional esplanade. A notable feature is the Seaton Tramway, a narrow-gauge heritage line that operates colourful trams along the river valley to Colyton. The nearby Axe Estuary Wetlands provide a significant area for birdlife. Economically, the area has a focus on tourism and retirement, alongside traditional sectors like agriculture. The Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site cliffs begin just to the west of the town.
