Kenton is a small village and civil parish in the district of Teignbridge, in the county of Devon, England. Set in rolling countryside just a few miles from Exeter and within easy reach of the south Devon coast, it sits among farmland and wooded lanes that make it popular for walking and outdoor pursuits.
Locally the village retains a compact community feel with a parish church, village hall, a pub and primary school forming the social hub. Historically agricultural, Kenton still shows this heritage in farm buildings and orchards, while many residents now commute to nearby towns; traditional events and local clubs help keep a strong community character.
