More about this scene
Tamar barges, such as the one moored here at the quay, were once a common sight on the Tamar and the Tavy. The two estuaries and the peninsula between them were cultivated for fruit and vegetables, which were taken to Plymouth by barge. The last barge, the 'Shamrock', is now berthed at Cotehele House on the bank of the Tamar.
