About

Teignmouth West ward occupies the western section of the coastal town of Teignmouth, bordering the estuary of the River Teign. Its area includes residential streets, the working harbour, and a stretch of the town's main beach. The ward is defined by its relationship with the water, containing the pier and the lifeboat station. The rear of the historic Den, a large greenspace, also falls within its boundaries.

The area's economy is connected to the port, with fishing vessels and a ferry service operating from the quay. Inland, the ward comprises housing from various periods, including Victorian terraces near the seafront. A notable local feature is the presence of the country's oldest passenger railway hotel, the Railway Inn, reflecting the town's long transport history. The ward functions as a mixed residential and maritime district.
