Cockington Village
The old forge is the building on the left. The horse and carriage take passengers to and from Torquay seafront, about three quarters of a mile away. Sadly the horse would not move its head!

What a gorgeous thatched village, and of course, the horse and cart is the cherry on the top. Lovely pic Marjorie
Random England fact:
After the author H G Wells died in London in 1946, his sons decided to spread his ashes between Dorset and the Isle of Wight. Leaving Poole harbour, the Channel was very choppy bobbing their hired boat, The Diedre, about. They abandoned their original idea, and when abeam Old Harry rock near Swanage, spread his ashes to the wind there instead.
