The area around Totnes.

Totnes is a hilly market town at the head of the Dart estuary, with a Norman castle and a strong reputation for alternative culture, environmentalism and independent shops. Its customer base cares about ethics, local sourcing and sustainability. Many older, listed properties need careful maintenance. Businesses here should show their values and local credentials, and trades benefit from mentioning eco or traditional methods, as well as naming Dartington and the surrounding villages.

The nearest town in the same council area is Dartmouth (7 miles). Elsewhere in Devon, Buckfastleigh (5 miles), Ashburton (7 miles), Newton Abbot (8 miles) and Kingsteignton (9 miles) are within reach. Across the boundary into the next council area, Paignton (5 miles), Torquay (7 miles) and Brixham (8 miles) are also close. If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.

Bridgetown, Dartington, Berry Pomeroy, Ashprington, Harbertonford and Staverton: if you work in particular parts of Totnes, those names belong on the site.

Totnes (postcode area TQ) sits about 21 miles south of Exeter.
