Chuffing hell, Barton. A lot of them look kinda familiar but the best I can do is to guess that #9 is somewhere in Ellacombe and 10 in the Warberries.
Rubbish, I know.

I'll let this run for a while longer.
Mainly on the right lines - as expected - but not poor Wildebeeste.
A couple of misplaced ones even for the locals and one or two that are close enough but not spot on. A half-mark only in one case; best to turn your back to look in the opposite direction in another.

I believe RJD has a professional interest in knowing Torquay like the back of his hand.
He clearly does and very well too (although I'm not yet ready to award a full mark for 4).
This will mean he'll be rationed to three responses in part two of the quiz.
But what is Cassiobury doing amongst those all those islands?

Ouch, I used to pick up my newspapers from a garage behind Wellswood Post Office when doing a paper round in Wellswood but didn't deliver along that particular stretch. Lots of funny little names amongst that lot, Cleve Terrace and Ashton Terrace ring a bell but don't know if it is in one of them....  |

Just remember re-positioning myself to leave the street sign out of the picture. |

I think the adjoining Browns Bridge Road is so named because it had to go over so very dodgy landfill ground and had to be piled in places so is in effect a bridge? |
