Teignbridge from Tuesday, March 31st, 2026

People have been urged to avoid the site of a dramatic landslide on the South Devon coast over fears more could follow. Witnesses heard a loud ‘crack’ as tonnes of soil, rocks and trees fell from cliffs at Shaldon Ness into the sea.

A ‘stunning’ central staircase will be the centrepiece of the transformed Newton Abbot Market Hall when it reopens in the coming weeks. The Grade II listed building has been closed since November 2024, with traders relocated nearby during redevelopment.
