Pictures From Mountbatten Breakwater, Plymouth, --#3 Bringing Home The Catch by Mike Greaves

Pictures From Mountbatten Breakwater, Plymouth, --#3 Bringing Home The Catch



A fishing boat passes the end of the breakwater,heading for Sutton Harbour,where it will unload the days catch,at the fish market.

After i had taken some unwanted items to the local tip, last Monday evening,i went on to Mountbatten Breakwater,to take some pictures.This breakwater was built around1878 to protect Sutton Harbour and the Cattewater,at the mouth of the river Plym. During WW2 this was a flying boat base, and was barred to the public. In the 1990's,the Plymouth Development Corporation, took over the area,and the breakwater was once again,returned to the people of Plymouth. It gives great views out into Plymouth Sound,and also of Plymouth Hoe and the waterfront.
This series of pictures were taken over about an hour and a half in the evening,at high tide, and it was very windy. But it wasn't raining !!!!!!!!!!
I hope you will enjoy the pictures:-)))

It seems that the fishing boat will soon collide with the seaward wall, but it's only an illusion, isn't it?
