Saltash

Having collected tokens from the Herald all week we had a free dayrider on Plymouth Buses, so chose to use it to visit Saltash.

We got off the bus at Fore Street and walked down the hill to the Waterside.  It was an extremely steep long hill!  It was interesting seeing the two bridges over the Tamar from this viewpoint.  We walked up the river estuary to the car park and then back to see the mural at the side of the pub, and statue of Brunel.  It was pretty overlooking the Tamar, but not spectacular.

We then climbed up the hill, going more gradually to begin with, but there were still some steep sections. After seeing the railway viaduct over the creek  we turned into Coombe Park which led to a footpath beside a stream through woods.  At the other end there was another steep section through a residential estate and then we joined Fore Street and found the bus stop.

This walk is too steep in sections to want to repeat.
