Slip Hill –
So named because of its steep and uneven surface this unclassified road, can however, be a picture in springtime when the wild flowers are in bloom.
Marldon Village Hall –
Opened in 1993 and replacing a 1930’s wooden building, the new Village hall is one of the best in South Devon and the hub for many of the Village’s numerous activities.
Love Lane –
View to the cluster of cottages around Love Lane Farm and to the hill beyond known locally as Blue Mountain.
Kiln Cross –
A busy and rather unusual four-way junction on the edge of the old Village.
Jubilee Meadow –
A quiet corner of the Village most of the time when not being used for organised events. Owned by the Parish.
Hill’s Quarry –

Church Hill –

Church Hill Cottages –

Archway in Village Road –
Part of what was once the boundary wall of Marldon House, this character stone archway situated opposite the Village Hall is a constant reminder of Marldon’s illustrious past. Well preserved in its original wall, the archway now serves as a marker for a pedestrian shortcut to modern housing.
Village Road 1 –
Although difficult to see in this photograph, the stone wall at the top end of the main road into the old Village centre incorporates a mounting block.
