Great spot Class 31! I've lived in Exmouth and I wouldn't have identified the photo as Exmouth |

| Is this a church spire? Long building to the LHS of it which may have a cross on it at the end. |

View looking east over Trefusis Place, Exmouth. This photo was located by the notch on the horizon seen in shot EPW023667 which is in Exmouth. Much of the foreground is now occupied by recent University buildings but some of the large Victorian houses are still here and can be identified. I have looked at this photo a number of times and looked at a number of spa towns. Exmouth is a positive identification. |

The beauty of having a long view that gives you a characteristic point on the horizon! Thanks Class 31, the Register entry says "Harpenden"...we'll update the catalogue and post the new data here in due course. Brilliant. Yours, Katy Britain from Above Cataloguing Team Leader |
