Dittisham

Dittisham is a village in the South Hams district of Devon. It is situated on the banks of the tidal River Dart, some 2 miles upstream of Dartmouth.
The Greenway Ferry carries pedestrians across the river from Dittisham to Greenway Quay, adjacent to the Greenway Estate. The Village has a public house (The Red Lion), which acts as the village shop and post office.

River Dart

The River Dart rises at Lower White Tor on Dartmoor and flows generally SE to its mouth at Dartmouth. Its valley and surrounding area is an area of outstanding natural beauty. The river's mouth is an excellent example of a Ria (drowned river valley).
