The model sitting on a

gravel bank looks almost

like the real thing

Any modeller interested in the

story of the estuary’s gravel-

dredging will find a little treasury

of models, photographs and

information in the Braunton

and District Museum, open

Monday to Saturday from 10

am-4 pm (brauntonmuseum@

yahoo.co.uk). The museum and

indeed, the little north Devon

town, home of some of the last

sailing coasters, are well worth

a visit. MMI
