Description
Hackney Marshes are an area of rough grassland, pools, scrub and wooded areas next to Newton Abbot racecourse. There are a number of good paths in the area, one of which takes you under the A380 to Passage House Inn. Along this path the Teign Estuary is narrow compared to the wider lower estuary to the East.
