Old Waterfront Colored Cobblestones Detail, Bayard's Cove Quay, Dartmouth, Devon.


Close up detail of historic cobbles on the waterfront at Bayard's Cove Quay near Bayard's fort, Dartmouth, Devon. These rounded and worn cobbles along the quay were arranged in a distinctive pattern utilizing the shape and color of the stones. This has been a classic means of road construction since Roman times. These are more recent but are likely to have witnessed many changes. This street is mainly used by pedestrians allowing plants to colonize the cracks between the pebbles. This waterfront setting is a very popular location for film makers.
