- Summary
- Pathe synopsis: This is a well-known north Devonshire beauty spot, where the West Lyn and East Lyn rivers join on their way to Lynmouth, a name so tragically connected with the disaster which overtook it a few years ago. Lynmouth has now been rebuilt to a safer plan so that even the swiftest flood-waters can do no harm. Now taken over by the National Trust, the wonderful scenery of Watersmeet will be preserved for future generations.
