Talk by John Risdon
Tales of the Dart Estuary
John Risdon was born in Brixham and has spent his life in Devon. In a varied career, John has worked in a timber yard, for the Admiralty, as a teacher, and in his own publishing business.
Throughout that time, John’s passion has been the history, geology, and geography of the Devon coastline and countryside. His guided walks and talks cover every aspect of Torbay, Dartmouth and the rolling hills of Dartmoor.
In this talk, John will regale us with Tales of The Dart Estuary!
He says, "I love my County and home of Galmpton, close by the Dart and waters of Torbay, with a quiet intensity, warts and all!
It retains a unique, ever-changing beauty with its world important heritage wrapped snugly within, waiting for the enquiring mind to delve deeper."
What hidden gems will he uncover - even for those who have also spent a lifetime in the area?
