The church dated from 1867, and had been built as a replacement for the old minster church. See http://www.exetermemories.co.uk/em/_churches/stmarymajor.php for more information. |

"Homes of British Speedway" describes this as a postwar construction but OS 1:2500 map dated 1932/36 shows Greyhound Stadium already on site. On the other hand OS 1:1250 map of 1950 shows development encroaching on south east corner, making book's assertion that dog racing continued until 1957 look unlikely. Trusham Road now runs through site. |

| The more I look at this the more I'm sure it's part of the old city wall. |

It's definitely on the line of the city wall - and if it was part of a blitzed building (the old post office?)it would surely have been knocked down by May 1947... |
