At the end of this wonderful video filmed at Croyde Bay in North Devon, you will see a large house called Downend House. We stayed there first week in June from 1991 to 2002.

Should there be a link to the video?

It's a fine area is that hope you walked to Baggy Point and did the coast walk round Morte Point and around.

Does anything remain of the whale's jawbone (I think that's what it was, like huge mammoth's tusks) that used to be by the pathway to Baggy Point, about 60/70 years ago?

It was there about 12 years ago, the last time I went.

I wonder who owns Downend house now, it had 8 bedrooms and slept 20, although there were only 3 of us and a dog!

Asa Police Cadet in 1964, a team of us used to do lifesaving on Croyde Bay. Amazing memories.
