The circus comes to town.

Yesterday The Circus Starr arrived in Saltash. They are giving two performances today (12th May).

Circus Starr is very different from many traditional circuses. They call themselves "the all human circus with a purpose" and they raise funds from the sale of tickets and sponsorship packages to local businesses. Much of their fundraising is targetted towards the Hospice movement.

This is the view from their pitch in Longstone Park. You can see where the River Tavy joins the River Tamar as it flows in under the little railway bridge, which carries the Tamar Valley Line.
