More about this scene
Originally part of the Elfordtown estate, and named after a prominent 16th-century mine-owner whose family continued in business as builders well into the 20th century, Yelverton was a spot of little note until, in 1887, it became the junction for the Princetown branch of the Plymouth to Tavistock Railway.

Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
2 roomed little private school which was the worst ever experienced. Owned/run/head mistress by an ex-nun MISS MELADY who was absolutely vile and cruel. Luckily she taught the older class whilst another teacher class I was in. My father was away at sea for basically 2 years, I was 4 1/2 (1965) and had to attend the school as it was the nearest, I think the Navy paid the fees. Be interesting to hear of anyone else who was there.
