Dr Blackall's Drive is a track built along the hill above the River Dart, near the hamlet of Poundsgate, in the parish of Widecombe-in-the-Moor, Devon.

Following the death of his father in 1860, he used his inheritance to purchase the manor of Spitchwick in 1867, as a country retreat, whilst he continued to primarily live in Exeter.

[1][2] He made a number of improvements to the estate and it's over 2,200 acres of land,[2] and during the 1880s he instructed a Gerald Warren to construct a scenic drive where he could take his carriage to best show off the beauty of the Dart valley for himself and his guests,[3][4] making this amongst the earliest examples of a scenic drive.

[5] The track was specifically designed for traversing by horse-drawn carriage,[6][7] and is only about 8 feet (2.4 m) wide at the widest point.

[1] It was designed as a scenic route,[8] and runs from near Spitchwick manor house up to what is now the Bel Tor car park, shadowing the road to the North which passes through Poundsgate.
