Reflections of the Past

Most of the former industrial warehouses bordering the River Dart at Totnes have now been remodelled as luxury riverside apartments, good to see them have a new lease of life and I believe it keeps much of the character of the old town.

An early morning image of some of them reflecting on the still water of the river at high tide.

    A wonderful photo Rod with reflections to die for. I can still remember those places when they were rather unsightly warehouses – they certainly look much better now. I used to love doing that cruise up from Dartmouth – it used to be one of the highlights of our early holidays before we moved down there. All the best, Peter

  • rodsfotos replied

    Thanks so much Peter, it’s quite a few years since I last made that river trip from Dartmouth to Totnes but it is certainly a great way to see the area with quire a few photo oportunities en-route,
    Regards, Rod.

    Uuunhhhh … ooooooo … lovely, lovely!!!!! Let’s sit right here … oh, there has to be a coffee shop nearby … what a joy to sit and watch the day be born in such a beautiful spot!!!!

  • rodsfotos replied

    You must have known Michael below knew the spot and of course the adjoining pub Lois,so perhaps it’s a glass of wine.
    Seriously though,you’d love the old town,most of the town centre buildings are over 500 years old and YES,quite a few coffee shops, in time, I’ll be taking quite a few more photos of the town itself, watch yhis space, many thanks Lois,

  • rodsfotos replied

    Yes, recycling old buildings is a good idea. Lovely too.

  • rodsfotos replied

    It would have been a shame if they had pulled down these old buildings and replaced them with modern ones Mary, these have so much more character, many thanks,
    Regards, Rod.

  • Mary Campbell

    Mary Campbell

    I agree Rod, just love the craftsmenship in these old building. Must be alot of maintenance though.

  • rodsfotos replied

    Worth every penny I’d say, I remember when some were used as stores for a building materials supplier and they looked so shabby in those days.

    Great to see places like this being loved again, super reflections here and a pretty scene

  • rodsfotos replied

    I lived near here for thirty years before recently moving to nearby Torquay so I was delighted to see them renovate the old buildings rather than tear them down, many thanks Jacqi,
    Regards, Rod.
