One of the many streets near the dockyard named after a famous sea battle in 1797. Sometimes referred to as Nelson's forgotten battle, he was a Commodore under the leadership of Admiral Jervis, nevertheless Nelson greatly assisted in the win for the British navy by successfully deploying risky tactics. Indeed had he failed he would have been court-martialed because he had disobeyed Jervis's orders. This photo was taken from the 1158 Penzance to London Paddington train, having left Liskeard at 1332 and shortly to arrive at Plymouth.
