Slow start today. The forecast is for total cloud cover, 16 C, 5 to 7 m/s wind until 16:00 so I can walk to Calstock and back without getting wet.

Various odds and ends seen in Calstock and on the way home.

A plaque celebrating the centenary of the Tamar Valley Line

An old telephone box with no handset and some books

A mural on the side of the community centre

I'm not sure what these things are for

I was rather taken with the clock in the window of the Salmagundi gallery


Instead of retracing my steps back to my accommodation I walked up the road to the Asda Express on the A390 between the holiday village and Gunnislake. Along the way out of Calstock I passed the Masonic Lodge which is quite a striing building

Further up the hill I crossed the railway

Almost at the Asda I passed the Drakewalls Mine





After picking up some sausages and tomatoes for dinner there was only a kilometre to go along the road that I was reluctant to walk along yesterday. But it wasn't raining this time and it turns out that all the drivers seem very careful, perhaps they are all incomers.

And here's a view from the road

And another St Piran's flag on the side of a skate installation
