Carnage on streets of Exeter

Authored by Mary Youlden
Posted: Wed, 05/04/2016 - 11:33am

The fine city of Exeter has never witnessed such devastating scenes of destruction and chaos. So it will come as great comfort to citizens to learn that it is on an incredibly small scale - 1:87 to be precise - and safely contained within a 40ft shipping container, as part of a surreal model village experience visiting the city.
