Primrose Cottage, Exmouth

Photograph at the Primrose Cottage, Exmouth blue plaque

Primrose Cottage. The last remaining thatched cottage in Exmouth town centre. There has been a dwelling on this site since the early 17th century. Constructed initially with cob walls but later faced with brick and sandstone. Primrose Cottage was at the northern edge of town well into the latter part of the 19th century, close to the turnpike beyond which were extensive marshes.
