Exeter, is an English cathedral city, located on the River Exe and county town of Devon. In the late 18th Century, Exeter's industry developed on the basis of locally available agricultural products and ready access to water power, on an early industrial site developed on drained marshland to the west of the city, at Exe Island. However, when steam power replaced water in the 19th century, Exeter was too far from sources of coal (or iron) to develop further and the city declined in relative importance.
