St Germans, by the river View northeast from the A374, near the Sconner Inn, across Polbathick Turf and Polbathick Lake (the upper tidal Lynher River Estuary).  Beyond is the then new housing development west of St Germans Quay.  Railway mainline viaduct on the skyline. Photograph taken 1979.

Crafthole Village Crafthole is a village on the hilltop above Portwrinkle. The picture shows part of the old village centre although there are many more 20th century houses in the village.

Sheviock A view of the village from the eastern side.  The church spire on the right is the Parish Church of St Mary, Sheviock.  While this may look an idyllic scene, Sheviock is one of those unfortunate villages which is split by a fast main road.  Although some of the traffic actually obeys the 40mph speed limit, this does not really help to make it either peaceful or safe.

The A374 east of Sheviock This stretch of road between the villages of Antony and Polbathic cuts through the low-lying mainly wooded countryside along the south side of Lynher River estuary.  Its open curves and good cambers make it a favourite with motor cyclists.

St Germans Most of the land shown here is part of the Eliot estate.  Photograph was taken from a train on the viaduct over the tidal river looking north.

Evening on the River Lynher As it is not high tide, what you see here is mostly mudflats.  The river channel can be seen crossing the mud near the centre of this photograph. The mica rich mud is however quite reflective, mirroring the sky and trees on the left bank.  This photo was taken from a train on the viaduct across the river.

Lane to Tredis Plantation, near Polbathic This lane is marked as a "white" (i.e. of dubious driveability) on my OS25000 and likewise on the 1940s map - but the Get-a-Map shows it as a thin yellow (narrow country lane).

Lynher River near Erth Barton One of the arms of the complex estuary which becomes Plymouth Sound. The Lynher (or St. Germans) River snakes inland for several miles forming numerous tidal creeks. This section varies dramatically between low and high tides.

Tidal Marshes, Sconner Turf , St Germans Photograph taken in winter from high ground close to St Germans railway station south eastwards, down river from Polbathic lake.  Sconner Turf Wood is beyond the river. These are the higher reaches of the Lyner, a tidal drowned river valley.
