Sharpham to Kingsbridge. We went by very bad parish roads, crossed by innumerable other roads, or rather narrow lanes, equally bad, without a single guide-post any where; and with so few houses, or people at work to enquire of, that it was with the greatest difficulty we found our way to Kingsbridge. Sept. 9.-Kingsbridge to Combe Royal, and by the Moult, Woodville, Salcombe, and Marlborough, to Modbury. In the garden of the inn at Kingsbridge is a large lemon tree, protected by glass during winter, but without fire-heat, which supplies lemons enough for the use of the inn. The horse-keeper is the gardener, and, being fond of that business, has the garden in excellent order. A few books are to be found in the inn, but nothing to what there ought to be; no county histories or local topography.
