Stoke Damerel churchyard
The gravestones have been assembled into pathways, so that, with its mature trees, the churchyard is like a rather private little park. Seen from Paradise Road.

Fellowes Place, Plymouth
Seen from across Paradise Road. The trees on the right are in the grounds of Devonport High School for Boys, and the notices advertise a forthcoming production of "Guys and Dolls" and the availability of sports facilities for hire.

Asenath Dangar's gravestone, Stoke Damerel
This stone captivated me when I worked nearby for a few months in 2003, firstly because of the unusual name, and then because of the sad tale it tells. Asenath was the wife of Samuel Dangar. Her first son, also Samuel, died at the age of two in November 1859, by which time her second son had already died, aged 12 weeks. Asenath herself died the following summer, aged 29.
(Addendum, Oct 2019: There is now an electronic record of this headstone at http://web.plymouth.gov.uk/web.plymouth.gov.uk/homepage/creativityandculture/archives/web.plymouth.gov.uk/web.plymouth.gov.uk/web.plymouth.gov.uk/archivescatalogue?record=0&cid=mrnxyyjkp4x2yzuhzcdfvl32&criteria=Asenath%20Dangar )
The stone forms part of a path around the churchyard of St Andrew and St Luke's church; all the gravestones have been laid out in this fashion, which makes for a sombre, if fascinating, series of walkways. However, it must mean that the information upon them will be erased more quickly. I had to push back the weeds at the edge of this stone a little to reveal the lettering more clearly.

I think this view covers a similar area to the summer scene in Image Again, it was taken from Paradise Road.

The Millbridge Inn
A cheerful splash of colour on a gloomy wet day. More like Ostober than early August.

Millbridge
This area of Plymouth is called Millbridge and is centred on this traffic light controlled crossroads. Around the crossroads can be found the usual local shops and services including a pub, mini-mart, take-away and several second-hand shops. The mill bridge after which this area is named was at the bottom of the hill on the road in the distance but the mills have long since vanished and the tidal creek the road crossed filled in to become a park Image
