Teignmouth East is the eastern ward of the seaside town of Teignmouth in Teignbridge, Devon, England, sitting on the north bank of the River Teign opposite Shaldon. The area mixes a Victorian seafront and harbour with sandy beaches and estuary views, and benefits from good rail and road links to Exeter and the wider south Devon coast.
Historically a small trading and fishing port that expanded in the Georgian and Victorian eras, the ward today relies heavily on tourism and local shops and cafés while retaining a working harbour and RNLI presence; its social make-up is a blend of long-standing locals, seasonal visitors and commuters, with active community groups concerned with coastal protection and preserving the town’s distinctive heritage.
