while we were taking photographs we could see the river slowly rising up the muddy banks. The river Tamar is still used as a transport route and of course as a tourism and leisure facility. In fact, the use of the river for pleasure dates back to Victorian times when steamers brought visitors including the Queen Victoria and her family in 1856.
