River Avon - NOT amateur radio

There are several Avons in the UK. This is the Avon in Devon at Bantham. It is believed tin was floated down from Dartmoor and traded with continental people here 1000 years ago. At one time, Bantham was a busy port. There are remains going back to the Iron Age nearby many thousands of years ago. A few hundred years ago it was a centre for smuggling.
