The mouth of the river separates the communities of Dartmouth and Kingswear.  Proposals to bridge the river here have come to nothing.  Instead the two places are linked by, in order going upstream, the Lower Ferry, Passenger Ferry and Higher Ferry. The Lower and Higher ferries both carry vehicles, the Higher one linking the A379 road.  Our real-photo postcard was mailed decades ago and has its two stamps, but the postmark and part of the message are marred by an abrasion where tape was removed.  Grade: 4
