This hump on the beach is the last remnant of the buildings of the Exmouth Artillery Battery, built 1862, that formerly existed south of the Coastguard Station.

There is an artillery gun beside it about the size of a 25 pounder.

Yes, it's a Mark IV Male tank. Presented 7 September 1919 and believed scrapped in the mid 1930s, but I'd be grateful to anyone able to provide a more accurate date.

The gun is more likely to be a captured German gun - perhaps a 7.7cm or 10.5cm field gun. Not far off a 25pdr in size. (The British 25pdr wasn't introduced till a few years later, and was derived from the 18pdr which was still in use so perhaps not likely to be set on show in this way.)

There are some very large beach huts in this row. Some are twice the size of a normal beach hut.

Exmouth beach huts. This was a community in itself but there are now no beach huts this side of the road.
