Visiting Totnes...

The following day, we caught a train to Totnes, a market town of just 8,000. Its first castle dates back to 907, but the remaining walls and keep date from around the 14th century. Unfortunately, we were unable to enter the castle ruins.
Totnes claims to have more historical buildings per capita than any other British town.
Its shopping street was quite lovely and we enjoyed finding some cool things in their charity shops.
Thought this was a clever name for a shop.
We enjoyed a great vegetarian buffet with lots of vegan options for lunch at Seeds 2 Totnes.
St Mary’s Church dates back to 1460.
In front there was another red poppy memorial for World War I.
There were definitely an impressive number of Tudor buildings...
...as well as a fake castle. 
The train journey was very scenic as well.
