About the River Tamar

The Tamar is a river in south-west England that forms most of the border between Devon and Cornwall. A large part of the valley of the Tamar is protected as the Tamar Valley National Landscape and some is included in the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape due to its historic mining activities.
