The River Lynher

The River Lynher flows into the River Tamar at Saltash, just across from Plymouth, 

and from the high points of the Churchtown Farm Community Nature Reserve 

you can see up the river towards the village of St Germans, and paths that lead down to the shoreline.

Across the river lies Jupiter Point, where the new recruits to the Royal Navy, at HMS Raleigh, 

do their initial practical sea training in a range of small craft 

and get their first taste of a "real" ship onboard HMS Brecon, permanently moored here.
