this small square at the foot of west st. and the steps should be as vibrant and attractive as the architecture deserves, instead it is a run down car park surrounded by empty shops with a major carriageway cutting across it, impossible for pedestrians and cut off from both quayside and city centre; a major planning mistake for post war exeter and in dire need of an imaginative rethink . as one of the first sights for visitors it spells depressed city when it could so easily become a positive asset. the c14 church, its c16 clock and the enticing steps to its east along with the half timbered houses are gems that most towns would cherish.

the early c16 clock with the figures known as matthew the miller and his sons sits in the c14 niche on the s.w.tower.

c14 building with interesting chimney top. the building seems to have been messed with since the first pevsner, the window he mentions seems to have been cut down to become a door.
