Mannamead is a leafy suburb in the Compton ward of the city of Plymouth in the county of Devon, England. It was an affluent Victorian and early Edwardian suburb with wide avenues such as Seymour Road, grand villas and Thorn Park. There are conservation areas but the area has been infilled and become more densely populated. There are very many care homes. The nearest secondary school is Plymouth College but the area has exceptionally frequent bus services passing many other schools. There is solid late Victorian Anglican church named Emmanuel, which has a good set of well rung bells. The church is linked to others at Efford and Laira and a partnership with Compton Church of England Primary School.A small row of shops lie on Henders Corner (the junction between Mannamead Road and Eggbuckland Road), as well as an NHS GP surgery, The Mannamead Surgery. The suburb gives its name to a local branch of JD Wetherspoon pub, The Mannamead, which is situated on Mutley Plain. The Penguin Lounge, formerly The Tap and Barrel, is a locally owned pub situated on Ashford Crescent.
