Newcourt, Exeter


Newcourt is a recently developed suburb of Exeter, Devon, England, located between Digby and Topsham. The area is primarily a housing estate, but includes a community centre, a train station and a branch of IKEA, which opened in May 2018.

History

During World War II, much of the land at Newcourt was used as a US Navy Supply Depot due to the strong transport links of Exeter. This facility was instrumental in the Normandy landings.
In 2010, Exeter City Council produced a masterplan for Newcourt to include provisions for 3,500 homes to be built by 2026.
