Dist:0.1km<br/>A road of Victorian terraces not far from the centre of Torquay.

Dist:0.1km<br/>The main road from St Marychurch and Plainmoor descends towards Castle Circus. The spire belongs to Upton church. Taken a few metres from the junction with Ash Hill Road.

Dist:0.1km<br/>As far as I can tell, this elegant Italianate terrace of 10 properties, with typical rounded arches to most of the windows, is overlooked by Cherry and Pevsner. The central houses face Castle Gardens and therefore have an unimpeded view across the Market Street valley.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Neatly nested between bricks in a limestone wall at the corner of Castle Road and Chatsworth Road.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Or Ferndale Lodge, as it appears on its website. The prominent building is seen from below in [[627854]]; this view is from St Marychurch Road. The turret in the background is on [[673966]].

Dist:0.1km<br/>A classic Victorian pair of semis overlooks the junction of [[1007578]] with Wellington Road (right). [[673616]] is on the left of the camera.

Dist:0.1km<br/>This little limestone cottage is dominated by tall buildings which also face onto St Marychurch Road, climbing the hill behind them. The cafe is connected with Upton Vale Baptist Church, the Victorian building to the right, with polychrome work around the windows. In the foreground is Lymington Road.
