Dear Keith,
The "Belle," a stone corpse, the Otter, Ken Norman, the "million brick bridge" and terraced houses feature in this account of my recent ramble, taking in another lost East Devon branch.

The link above leads you to a fascinating collection of around 150 pictures taken as 'the scout' Colin Burges makes an extensive visit to the sadly lost Budeigh branch  providing very detailed notes of his travels - superb pictures.  Not to be missed.
