10 miles on the Tamar estuary with my paddle board…
…a great way of spending a sunny spring Sunday!
Lots to see, including otter footprints in the mud, the ochreous outflow of a mine adit and the overgrown scenery of the upper reaches.

One of the remains of the valley’s mining era is an old stationary steam engine – just ‘parked’ there along the public footpath.
I wonder what else is hidden in the woodlands, rotting slowly…
