Scope and Content
Blewitt, Octavian. The panorama of Torquay. Second Edition. London: Simpkin and Marshall; Torquay: Cockrem, 1832. p. 140.[
] it is almost unnecessary to say that Torquay abounds in an endless profusion of subjects for the pencil of the artist; wood, rock, hill and dale meet the eye at every turn; and the luxuriant shores of the bright, blue Bay, with all its lake-like forms, contrast beautifully with the limestone tors and bursted glens with which they are surrounded.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
