About Countess Wear

Countess Wear occupies a pleasant spot on Exeter's southeastern edge where the River Exe meanders through the Devon countryside. The A379 provides the main access, linking the area to Exeter city centre in 10 minutes and continuing towards the coast at Dawlish. From the M5, exit at Junction 30 and follow signs through Exeter. The location offers easy access to both the cathedral city and nearby Topsham, whilst Exeter International Airport sits 8 kilometres northeast. The area takes its name from a 13th-century fish weir built by Isabella de Fortibus, Countess of Devon, which created the first artificial barrier across the River Exe.
