from Townstal to link with the Higher Ferry. The forum would help create the basis for their “Town Plan” a year later – which would be the first catalyst for the building of College Way in 1969. Swimming was also a big concern of residents in 1962 – as it is today – but for rather different reasons. Rather than a campaign for a swimming pool in
Townstal, the call was for an open-air unheated pool on the site currently occupied by the Community Green- house. The call was made after the town’s Swimming Club was forced out of its home of 70 years at Castle Cove. Storms caused massive rock falls and also damaged the club’s changing facilities. They had the annual ‘first dip’ in the Boatfloat instead – and no one was very happy about it. Understandably so. The water in the Boatfloat was a big bone of conten- tion for club member. It was full of diesel oil for one thing and the mud that filled it stank. The river was much dirtier back then. Along the banks of the beautiful and picturesque river Dart there were EIGHTEEN raw sewage outlets.
Although the views of our stunning river have been changed in the last fifty years with developments both on and off the water, and there is a lot of debate about whether these changes are for better or worse – it’s clear the water in the river is a great deal cleaner now.•
