The River Exe, flowing through the picturesque county of Devon in England, is a captivating waterway that weaves its way through stunning landscapes and historic landmarks. From the towering Peters Tower to the bustling harbour, this river offers a multitude of sights to behold. An aerial view over Exeter city centre reveals the grandeur of both the city and the river as they harmoniously coexist. The Double Locks Inn stands proudly on its banks, inviting visitors to enjoy a pint while soaking in the serene atmosphere. Dating back centuries, an exquisite watercolor painting from 1827 showcases Exeter's charm with scraping and stopping out techniques. Meanwhile, an enchanting engraving of Nutwell Court transports us to a bygone era when elegance reigned supreme along these shores. A map from Civitates Orbis Terrarum takes us even further back in time, offering a glimpse into how Exeter was depicted during Georg Braun's era. The clock tower and esplanade at Exmouth capture August 1931's essence perfectly—a snapshot frozen in time. Nestled within the lush greenery of the Exe valley lies a farm overlooking this majestic river—a tranquil oasis where nature thrives alongside human habitation. Countess Weir beckons us with its timeless beauty captured around 1870; it serves as a reminder that Mother Nature can be both awe-inspiring and formidable. Exwick Fields' vantage point provides an idyllic panorama of Exter—an image preserved since 1898 by an unknown artist who sought to immortalize this charming town for future generations. Lastly, HT Cousins' artwork presents us with breathtaking views from atop Beacon Hill in c1896—Exmouth unfolds before our eyes like an oil painting brought to life. As you journey along the River Exe's meandering path through Devonshire's enchanting landscapes, let yourself be captivated by its history-rich surroundings—the remnants of ancient civilizations, the architectural wonders, and the ever-changing beauty of nature.
