Totnes Plains

The Plains was the market place for the town of Totnes
until the 1950’s now it is the flattest part of the town &
where you catch a taxi, watch dancing (see pic) & the yearly
Carnival wind up. Lots of lovely places surround it, like the Riverside
café & in the middle, is a statue to the town’s son, Wills, of the
ill-​fated Burke and Wills expedition; the first to cross Australia from
south to north, & where he perished.
The centenary of the death of Wills is in 2011
