About

Tamerton Foliot is a northern suburb of Plymouth, situated along the banks of the River Tavy. The area is primarily residential, with housing developments ranging from older properties to modern estates. It retains a distinct village character, separate from the main urban centre, with its own local shops and community facilities. The geography is defined by the river and the wooded valley of the Foliot, creating a green boundary.

The area is notable for its historic church, St. Mary's, which dates back to the 13th century. The tidal creek and surrounding marshland, known as the Foliot, provide a specific habitat for wildlife within the city's limits. This network of waterways and green spaces offers local walking routes, contrasting with the more built-up areas of Plymouth to the south.
