Good news for football and rugby in east Devon

Exmouth and Honiton look set to get more sports pitches. There are plans to create several new ones in the two towns as well as improving existing facilities.

The proposals are being put forward by the district council which is emphasising that they're currently just ideas - it wants to get the views of local residents and sports clubs before making any decisions.
They include four new football pitches at St Rita's in Honiton and five new rugby pitches at the former showground, along with improvements at All Hallows and the Community College.
In Exmouth three new pitches are proposed at the former Rolle College site, and four each at Courtlands Cross and Hulham Road. There'd also be upgrades at the Imperial Ground, St John's Road, King George's Field and  Raleigh Park.
A consultation runs until the 8th of July.
