The Devonport Trail

	< The group meets outside the (locked) gates to Seymour House		< The groups marches up on to the new mast at Mount Wise and Nigel tells us where we're going today		< The mast gives you a good prospect over Devonport - including the three tower blocks, nearly painted
Looking the other way, a spectacular view towards the Royal William Victualling Yard >		And then we leave the mast... >		...and walk down towards the Scott Memorial >
	< This memorial to Robert Falcon Scott ("Scott of the Antarctic") has been recently cleaned and gets a close inspection		< Walking back through the streets of Devonport we glimpse Foulston's Guildhall...		<...and then the Old Chapel - now Plymco
The second walk to take us near to the old Devonport Library >		Then back down towards the Guildhall, passing Foulston's Egyptian House... >		...the site of the old Ker Street School... >
	< ... complete with plaque to mark the opening		< Towering over it all is the Devonport Column, sadly locked. It commemorates Plymouth Dock becoming Devonport		< And opposite, in the bowels of the Guildhall, the current Devonport Library.
Another reminder that Devonport is quite a new town >		Someone suggests we go and have a look inside the Egyptian House, now a club. Not everyone is keen >		Whatever you think of the building, that doorway is spectacular >
	< While the back of the Guildhall has its own modest charms		< Devonport, a town of contrasts - tower block and green fields		< And bad housing
This was the worst housing in evidence - the windows are rotting and tenants are living here >		Some flats have been modernized, however, such as these in Pembroke Street >		We arrive at Mutton Cove - again - and enjoy a sit down in the warm September sunshine >
	< Looking towards the new Mount Wise pools		< Along Richmond Walk, and we find the remains of the old L&SWR Stonehouse Pool branch		< A glimpse of Stonehouse Bridge
Nigel points out the fortifications on Devonport Hill >		One group member catches the bus home >		Click on a picture to see the full-size version Next walk...
