Teignmouth, Coastal town in Teignbridge, England.

Located on the north bank of the River Teign estuary, Teignmouth extends along a sandy beach stretching for 2 miles against the English Channel.

The French invasion of 1690 caused substantial damage to Teignmouth, leading to a financial petition that collected £11,000 for rebuilding the settlement.

The port maintains its maritime traditions through annual regattas, shanty festivals, and carnival celebrations that bring together local residents and visitors.

The railway station serves over 700,000 passengers annually with direct connections to Exeter, Plymouth, and London through Great Western Railway services.

In 1831, Teignmouth's quay became instrumental in shipping Dartmoor granite used for constructing London Bridge.
