Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Chimneypots at Dittisham Dittisham is situated on the banks of the tidal River Dart, some 2 miles (3.2 km) upstream of Dartmouth. A most attractive and unspoilt village, it has become a popular destination for yachtsmen, tourists and a sought after place to live, which is reflected its relatively high property prices. The village is believed to be named after 'Deedas', a Saxon chief, who probably settled here soon after the Saxon invasion of Devon in about 660 A.D.
The village hosts an interesting and pleasing variety of building styles and colours, although in this view I felt that the greys and reds in the irregular stonework did not contrast comfortably (albeit segregated by the gable end) with the softer yellows of the brickwork and earthenware chimneys. |
