About

The Dartmouth area occupies the west bank of the River Dart's lower estuary, with steep, wooded hillsides descending to the waterfront. The town is centred around a natural deep-water harbour, historically significant for the Royal Navy. Narrow, historic streets and a mix of architectural styles, from Tudor to Georgian, characterise the settlement.

The area's topography is defined by the river, with boatbuilding and maritime activities remaining central. The Dart Valley Trail follows the riverbank, and a passenger ferry connects to Kingswear on the opposite shore. The surrounding South Hams countryside consists of rolling farmland and small villages inland from the estuary.
