The Tamar in South West England, that forms most of the border between Devon and Cornwall. At its mouth, the Tamar flows into the Hamoaze where it joins with the River Lynher before entering Plymouth Sound. The river has some 20 road crossings, including some medieval stone bridges, and the Tamar Bridge, a toll bridge on the A38 trunk road and the Royal Albert Bridge (1859), the first crossing of the lower Tamar, both are between Saltash (known as the Gateway to Cornwall) and Plymouth. One of the important road crossings of the Tamar is near Lawhitton at Greystone Bridge: the arched stone bridge was built in 1439. The Tamar's source is less than 6 km (4 miles) from the north Cornish coast, but it flows southward. North of the source the Cornish border heads to the sea along Marsland Water, making Cornwall nearly an island. The east bank of the Tamar was fixed as the border of Cornwall by King Athelstan in the year 936. There is a good run of Salmon and Sea Trout, the latter being particularly numerous on the Lyd. There are also Grayling in places.
