A day in Plymouth

Our hikes sandwiched a day in Plymouth to have lunch with Les’ cousin, Barry and his wife Helen. 
Barry has been doing some genealogical research and presented Les with 5 pages of family: dates, names etc. I’m thinking we can probably fill in some bits. Like four kids and five grandchildren!
We walked the Plymouth Hoe and the Barbican, admired the stained glass windows at the Minster of St Andrews and then took a ferry to Mountbatten to meet Nick. And here’s what we saw on a wall across from the ferry...
The plaque below notes that this is where, in medieval times, the pilgrims set off by boat for Spain, to either Ferrol or Á Coruña.
