Cranbrook sits in East Devon, Devon, in the west of England, close to Exeter and Exeter Airport. Created on former farmland as a planned new town in the early 21st century, it is laid out with green corridors, parks and cycle routes that aim to stitch together housing areas with open space.
Characterised by modern housing, new schools, shops and community facilities, Cranbrook has a notably young, family-oriented population and a lively calendar of local groups and events. Economically many residents commute into the wider Exeter area while a growing town centre and nearby business space are developing local employment, with ongoing construction phases continuing to shape its social and cultural character.
