What is recorded here
This blue commemorative plaque records: Thomas Tucker. Built in the 1790's and known originally as West End House. It was built as the dower house for the mother of Gustaves Ducarel, the squire of the now demolished Manor House in Manor Gardens. In 1801 Richard Webber astonished the town by buying the house and converting it into a shop. The original shop front is incorporated in the present frontage. Recorded plaque organisation: Exmouth Society.
Thomas Tucker was associated with West End House, built in the 1790s as a dower house; later, Richard Webber transformed it into a shop in 1801, marking an unusual conversion that reflects changes in local property use.
