Thoughts:
Yes, Torquay is in Devon and is a place.
Cutter is probably his occupation (probably stonecutter, but that is a guess)
S.M. - probably. The W's look different (straighter lines). But it's a hard one to be sure.
The surname (signature) under Amelia (Aurelia?) Alice could possibly be Mansfield, but that's a stretch.
Further question: Is it possible the wife's name is Aurelia not Amelia? If you know for sure, that's fine, but those u/r/m etc are tough to distinguish.
Just my thoughts.

Mansfield is correct , As is Alice. Here is another document and a little clearer viewpoint.
Thank you for your thoughts.
