EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured around the turn of the twentieth century, offers a glimpse into the picturesque scene of Dartmouth and Kingswear as viewed from Warfleet. The tranquil River Dart, with its meandering course and shimmering reflections, serves as a serene backdrop to the bustling activities of the bustling ports. In the foreground, small boats and vessels dot the water, their sails billowing gently in the breeze. The quaint cottages and buildings along the riverbanks add to the idyllic charm of the scene. Further upstream, the wooden hulk, Britannia, can be seen anchored. This historic vessel, which pre-dates the construction of the Royal Naval College in 1905, was used as a cadet training ship for the British Navy. The photograph is a testament to the rich maritime history of Dartmouth and the River Dart. The area had long been a hub of naval activity, with the Royal Navy maintaining a presence in the town since the late 16th century. The arrival of the Great Western Railway (GWR) in the late 19th century brought about a surge in tourism, making Dartmouth a popular destination for visitors from across the country. This photograph, taken prior to the construction of the Naval College, captures the area in a moment of quiet beauty and tranquility. The absence of modern buildings and commercial development lends an air of nostalgia to the image, transporting us back in time to a simpler era.
