Learn more →Wonford’s post-war housing development created large areas of brick and concrete tile semi-detached and terraced properties running from the 1950s through to the 1980s. The housing stock is predominantly concrete interlocking tile, with the earlier post-war properties now showing consistent nail sickness patterns.
Wonford’s position adjacent to the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital gives it a distinctive neighbourhood character. The streets around Dryden Road and Duncan Road carry a mix of housing eras. The open character of the south-facing slopes towards Countess Wear gives some properties good solar exposure but also directional wind exposure in south-westerly weather.
Post-war concrete tile nail sickness on 1950s–70s properties. Flat roof repairs on rear extensions are common — many Wonford properties have 1970s–80s felt flat roofs now due for GRP replacement. Gutter maintenance is a regular call given the volume of leaf fall from Wonford’s mature street trees.
