Warren afficiando here, I remember the shacks in the Warren in the late 1980s. We used to buy plastic boats and balls to play with on the beach. I also remember the Copper Mine Amusements, the Hillbilly Moonshine, and the humming of the go carts. The background of my phone is of myself, my little sister, and my grandad eating ice cream sandwiches outside of our caravan on the Holimarine site in 1988. There used to be a motorised boating lake at the area beyond the black fence 5:48. As you can see that is no longer there.

Thanks for this Bill. I live in the South West now and its suprising how many people here don’t know about Dawlish or Teignmouth for that matter. Dawlish was the place where we went on holiday during the 1960’s and 70’s. Its a bit spoilt now especially the sea front but I still like it. I was there last Sunday.

The Mount Pleasant used to have a great family room as I remember it, but it's gone now and been incorporated in the main pub. The upside is now the great picture window with a fabulous view of Exmouth and beyond. Thanks Bill.

Thanks for the info! Like I said, I'm not really that well up on the Warren, having only visited a minimal amount of times - I wanted to call it 'Red Rock' as well, as that was what was in my mind, but if you go to any maps, it comes up as Langstone rocks - Which ties in with the Langstone Cliff Hotel nearby. I guess its a bit like the Parson & the Clerk - Technically, 'Our' clerk - From Teignmouth, is really 'Shag Rock' - But it will always be the Clerk to us :)
