Publication Details
Bounsall's visitors' guide to Exmouth, and the various places of interest in the neighbourhood. Exmouth: W.M. Bounsall, 1865. p. 25. The sea wall, a noble structure built in 1842, by the munificence of the late Lord Rolle, for the protection of the property adjoining from the encroachment of the tide. The length of the wall is three-eighths of a mile, and its perpendicular height above the average spring tides, is about 7 feet, the summit has been converted into a most delightful promenade and drive, which for extent, beauty of situation, and magnificent scenery which it commands, may challenge comparison with that of any watering-place on the coast.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
