Starcross /stɑːrˈkrɒs/ is a village with a 2021 census recorded population of 1,694[1] situated on the west shore of the Exe Estuary in Teignbridge in the English county of Devon.
The village is popular in summer with leisure craft, and is home to one of the United Kingdom's oldest sailing clubs.
The A379 road and the London to Penzance railway line both run through the village along the banks of the estuary.
A notable feature of Starcross is the Italianate pumping engine house, the best surviving building from Brunel's unsuccessful Atmospheric Railway.
Note that the Brunel pumphouse now houses the Starcross Fishing and Cruising Club rather than a museum dedicated to the atmospheric railway, as quoted in many guide books.
