Welcome to thisisSaltash
Welcome to Saltash's very own community website.   

This site will become a focal point for Saltash on the internet. 

If you are having an event you can post it on to the calendar. It can be anything from a tea party to a car boot sale, a school reunion, or your clubs monthly meeting down the local pub. Nothing is too small or too large!


Why not look at the History section.  You will find written accounts from people who's great grandmothers and fathers lived in Saltash.

Taking the Saltash heritage trail you can get a image of the days gone by, like Old Mr Elliot’s shop, and Mary Newman’s Cottage, but if you look harder you will be able to find many old relics still there, such as the gate pillars for the Port View estate.  There is far more to be found than most people realise you just need to open your eyes. Have you ever wandered up Fore Street and noticed a green dragon? No, go and have a look, its on the Co-op building, the site of the Green Dragon Inn. Wander along the waterside and experience some magnificent views up and down the Tamar, and take in some beautiful public houses such as the Union Inn and The Boatman or a wander up Station Hill takes you past the Two Bridges, a public house situated almost directly under the Royal Albert Bridge.
 

The Town boasts some very famous former associations such as Ann Glanville, Henry Jackson and not forgetting Isambard Kingdom Brunel who built and designed the Royal Albert Bridge that connected Devon and Cornwall across the river Tamar, becoming the “Gateway to Cornwall”

Facebook Integration
I have integrated the thisisSaltash website with facebook, I am hoping that this will increase our active readership.  I have been unable to commit as much time to the site recently and I am hoping this might be what is needed to bring more people to the site.

Tell all your friends
