This complex of a restored 19th century village, docks and quays was once the richest copper port in Victorian times, is now is now an open air museum and a World Heritage Site.
The reconstructed overhead rails leading to the dockside can be seen here, together with a renovated wooden sailing ship, the Garlandstone, launched in January 1909, and now a tourist attraction. Even this Victorian greenhouse has been carefully restored using ornate style glazing.
Morwellham Quay was the location for the 2010 BBC series 'The Edwardian Farm'.
