    What a wonderful place with such a variety of things to see & do. It seemed remarkably quiet for such a lovely spot.

    What could be better than meeting-up in such a bracing atmosphere. The Dutch trading connection is very interesting. There must have been a small settlement, judging by some of the architecture. I wonder if there are descendents still living in the vicinity today. What a cornucopia of a museum too, reflecting the life of a working town. As you say, it would pay more than a single visit. Great stuff. Thank you.

      Thank you Malcolm - glad you found it interesting too.
      I do hope to return here at some point - it was a very enjoyable and interesting day.
      The museum is a credit to the volunteers who look after it.
      Take care,
      Paul

    What an interesting museum. I didn't expect to see Scarlet O Hara's nightdress in there! Glad you both had a fun day. Thanks Paul and Louise 🙂🙂⛵⛵

    A great wander around Toosham. We have not visited but it certainly looks worth exploring. An enjoyable watch. 👌🏻

      Thank you Watto & Kim!
      Hope you are both feeling better now.
      Yes, Topsham is a wonderful town and only just a few minutes from Exeter and St. David's Station, or the M5. Much of interest there.
      Thanks for your kind words.
      Take care,
      Paul

    Hello Paul - greetings from Poland.
    Excuse my ignorance, but I've never heard of Topsham until I watched your superb video today. What a fascinating place. Beautiful buildings especially those built with a Dutch influence. A very intersting history, beautifully told by you and Louise. Your photographs were excellent and showed so many different aspects of this town

    • @westcountrywanderings

      Thank you Michael!
      Yes, Topsham isn't that well known, but it is well worth visiting I feel.
      Glad you enjoyed myself and Louise's wander here.
      Take care,
      Paul

    Loved this video Paul!! You captured the whole day perfectly! It was just like re-living it again!
    We had such a fantastic, fun and fascinating day and it really came across in this video!
    Love that you linked to my favourite South West breakfast show and showed Rocky and Rambo, the show’s mindfulness Pygmy goats!

      Yes, it was a lovely day. Glad this video reminded you of it.
      It is such a lovely and interesting town - glad you enjoyed it too.
      Yes, I couldn't leave the goats 🐐🐐 out could I!
      I look forward to the next Collab - such an enjoyable thing to do.

      Yes, Topsham is a town (and port) with much of interest - we both had an enjoyable day here. Glad you found it via the monthly vlog.

    I have been past on the other side of the Exe many times but never the right side to see the lock properly and the village/town. It is so nice to see the West Country vlogs from you and Louise and Ron Parkinsons’s Walks. I am never going to be able to get there now I live in the north so seeing all these familiar places and learning more of their secrets is a joy. Thank you.

    • @westcountrywanderings

      Thank you Marilyn.
      Glad you enjoy our vlogs around the Westcountry.
      Yes, I try to make videos that I can do in a day from where I live in Gloucestershire - hence why the border of the area is that I cover. Anything in the North or East is no good for me. But, because there is so much in the Westcountry that really isn't a problem. I am also fortunate in that I am within walking distance of a main railway station, which helps a lot as I don't enjoy driving at all.
      Thanks again,
      Take care,
      Paul

    That was so enjoyable- both your enthusiastic presentations rubbed off. I found I was smiling throughout. I have never been there but I did find a walk round the town a couple of years ago. It wasn’t very comprehensive & ( as you said) we didn’t t see the shops. I would love to see the ferry crossing

      It is a really lovely and interesting town.
      We had a blast making this.
