Morning mist on the river Tamar, S.E. Cornwall
Saltash (Cornish: Essa) is a town in the south east of Cornwall, facing Plymouth over the River Tamar and is known as "the gateway to Cornwall". As the Tamar is met by her sister river, the Tavy, the estuary widens considerably to become the stretch of water known as the Hamoaze. This is the location of Isambard Kingdom Brunel's Royal Albert Bridge, which takes the railway line across the River Tamar. Alongside it is the Tamar Bridge, a toll bridge carrying the A38 trunk road. Situated on the west side of the river both to the north and the south of the bridges are the moorings of the Saltash Sailing Club.
