Random Memories - Dartmouth Bluebells

Spring has sprung and so have our very own native bluebells


As joyous as they are to us they do make me a little home sick for the great bluebell carpets of Devon


Particularly around Dartmouth. This is the 'Old Quay'. I used to live just behind the position of this photo. It was used in filming the TV series the Onidin Line.



looking down towards the sea and 'Gallants Bower'




A wonderful place for wild flowers of all types but truly magical in Spring.





Once a hill fort it has stunning views up the river Dart.



and out to sea




And as said the setting of the most beautiful display of bluebells that I know of.


I have many happy memories of walking here and hope you enjoyed sharing them.

  1. I do love bluebells. We'll have to time a visit to Kew to catch them in full bloom!!
