Yelverton

Yelverton is a big town on the south-western side of Dartmoor, Devon, in England. When Yelverton train station (on the Great Western Railway (GWR) line from Plymouth to Tavistock) opened up in the 19th century, the town ended up being a popular residence for Plymouth commuters. The train is now closed, however the Plym Valley Railway has reopened a section of it. Yelverton is well known for Roborough Rock - a prominent mass of rock near to the Plymouth road on the fringe of close-by Roborough Down, near the southern end of the airfield. It provided its name to the Rock Hotel, built as a farm throughout the Elizabethan period, however converted in the 1850s to cater for growing tourist in the area. The location to the south and also west of the roundabout at the centre of the village was resolved in late Victorian as well as Edwardian times, with several grand and also luxurious vacation homes. An area established at about the very same time on an odd shaped piece of land to the south of the Tavistock road is called Leg o' Mutton Corner. At the beginning of the Second World War, an airfield (RAF Harrowbeer) was created at nearby Harrowbeer as a boxer station for the air support of Devonport Dockyard as well as the Western Approaches. A 19th century terrace of homes, now primarily exchanged stores, had to have its top storey got rid of to supply a less complicated approach. One tall building which was not modified was St. Paul's Church, yet the tower was struck by a plane, causing a warning light being fitted. The design of the paths is still extremely clear and although they are considerably grassed over, the many planet as well as block safety shelters developed to protect the fighters from strike on the ground are all still in place. Some American airmen as well as anti-aircraft battery devices were posted right here throughout the 2nd half of the battle. A plane lugging President Roosevelt landed here when its original destination was fogbound.
