Saltash


The Cornish Cross, a spectacular new monument marking the ‘Gateway to Cornwall’.


Saltash, one of Cornwall’s oldest towns is the Gateway to Cornwall.


Much of the old town can be found towards the eastern end of Saltash, where the Tamar River and its magnificent bridges are well worth a visit.


Brunel’s Royal Albert Bridge, a unique international engineering design masterpiece, can be viewed from the modern but impressive Tamar Road Bridge by way of a pedestrian walkway.


A vibrant and busy town centre with many


independent shops and cafes


lies close to the river and bridges.


There is easy access to and from car parks, all FREE at weekends.


The town centre is on major bus routes and is just a few minutes’ walk from the mainline railway station.


One of the newest attractions in Saltash is the tranquil Elwell Woods, situated alongside the Tamar Bridge and home to the Saltash Cornish Cross.


The two acre woodland has been transformed from years of neglect to provide a peaceful haven with picnic areas and pathways that link


up with the Waterfront and stunning views across the river Tamar.


At 20 metres high, the Cornish Cross is a spectacular new monument, marking the ‘Gateway to Cornwall’.


A short circular walk taking in the Cross, Waterfront, Bridges, Station and town centre, along with other places of heritage interest such as Mary Newman’s Cottage, Elliott’s Store and the Saltash Heritage Museum is a hilly, enjoyable stroll.


Thirty minutes’ walk from the town centre is the Churchtown Farm Nature Reserve, set in 150 acres of


beautiful Cornish countryside, with spectacular views of the Lynher and Tamar estuaries.
