Where is it?

Can anyone identify the location.

This was taken by my wife's Grandfather probably 100 years ago.
He was well known as an early amateur photographer.
He is better known for his work of historic Canal Barges and crews mainly in the Blisworth area of Northampton.

He holidayed in North Devon and took his very large camera, tripod hood and glass plates with him!

Absolutely no idea. From the light it looks as if we are facing vaguely NWish, and there appears to be another shoreline past the hills across the centre past a larger bay perhaps.

I reckon it's the Yealm looking south west from Newton Ferrers?

Thanks very much. I like the way he has used the tree to very nearly hide the tower.
I bet the tree is no longer there.
