Saltram, Plympton -sunday 25th September 2011

The sun brought out hundreds of people to National Trust property Saltram, in Plympton.  We walked up to hill to survey Plymouth in the distance:

You can see the sea on the left and the Hoe from here.

Along a lane skirting the fields full of cows, we emerged onto the path leading to the small beach.  The tide was in, lots of dogs running around and spaniels especially swimming in the sea.


Bob just barks at them and gets his feet wet!!

The path then follows the river and opens up to reveal the folly and the area in front of it

Recently refurbished folly

Sainsbury's sails in the distance across the River


This area is very attractive to birds.  It is often flooded with all but these two islands submerged.

  1. The Sainsbury's sails look surprisingly effective in the distance.
    Bob looks in his element.
