We have other videos on the River Fal including a Boat Trip from Falmouth to Truro on the scheduled services run by Enterprise Boats, a couple on the laid up shipping at Tolverne and of Trelissick Gardens on the banks of the river.

The video also shows the HMS 'Ganges' memorial in Mylor churchyard. This memorial commemorates the 53 boys who died whilst training on the HMS 'Ganges' between 1866 and 1899. The ship was a three masted naval training ship moored nearby for a period of 33 years, training young boys for a service career.

The Churchyard contains the graves of some the captains the Packet (Mail) ships which operated from Falmouth.
Mylor Dockyard was the most westerly Naval Dockyard and victualling station in England.
