The Rectory Field, Devonport
The home ground of Devonport Services Rugby Football Club, where a match against Cleve in the Tribute South West 1 West league is about to take place. Cleve took an early lead but Devonport Services triumphed comfortably and are, at time of submission, at the top of the table. A further rugby pitch at Stonehouse Creek can be seen behind.
The houses on the right are at the ends of short terraced streets off Rectory Road. Away in the background is Millbay, with the 18-storey Chichester House.

Former railway bridge and trackbed, Stonehouse
View south along the trackbed of this former LSWR branchline. Photographed from the site of the former LSWR station that was demolished to make way for Plymouth College of Further Education. The grassed area south of the terraced houses was formerly a tidal creek. It was infilled, I believe, in the 1960's. This view is 1979.

STEM Centre, City College, Plymouth
The £13m Regional Centre of Excellence for STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) was opened in 2017. It may havs been built on the site of several car parks, but I'm sure it was worth it.
