| Description: | Challacombe - Simonsbath road (B 3358) at a point 25 yd. E. of spot height 1032 ft. about 1/2 m. from Challacombe. Looking N. North Exmoor floods, 1952. A view taken 64 yards south of the locality named, showing the site of a temporary stream formed by storm water that collected on the Challacombe-Simonsbath road. Note erosion in Ilfracombe Shales, also the gateway (in gap in hedge) through which the water escaped from the road. The white slabs are from the sandstone bands in the shale. See also A8760 and A8770. |
