North-East CORNWALL

[ Photo Gallery # 86 }

My photo gallery today features photographs taken several years ago along the shores of the River Camel Estuary. The CAMEL ESTUARY is included within the Cornwall Area Of Outstanding Beauty. It is a wide tidal river valley stretching inland from the open sea for five miles to the town of Wadebridge. Many small villages, creeks, beaches and inlets line its coast, and, on the west bank is the delightful town of Padstow.
