Cattewater (original) (raw)
The city of Plymouth, Devon, England is bounded by Dartmoor to the north, the Hamoaze to the west, the open expanse of water called Plymouth Sound to the south and the river Plym to the east. The Cattewater is that stretch of water where the mouth of the river Plym merges with Plymouth Sound, just to the east of Sutton Pool. It is around this Pool that the manor of Sutton started, which grew to form the present day city. On the northern shore of this confluence of waters there was a rock outcrop, which it was claimed, had the appearance of a cat. This gave its name to this stretch of water and eventually the name of Cattedown to the adjoining wharves and commercial area. Apart from an occasional small oil tanker the area is now used mostly by fishing trawlers, yachts, and smaller pleasure

| dbo:abstract | The city of Plymouth, Devon, England is bounded by Dartmoor to the north, the Hamoaze to the west, the open expanse of water called Plymouth Sound to the south and the river Plym to the east. The Cattewater is that stretch of water where the mouth of the river Plym merges with Plymouth Sound, just to the east of Sutton Pool. It is around this Pool that the manor of Sutton started, which grew to form the present day city. On the northern shore of this confluence of waters there was a rock outcrop, which it was claimed, had the appearance of a cat. This gave its name to this stretch of water and eventually the name of Cattedown to the adjoining wharves and commercial area. Apart from an occasional small oil tanker the area is now used mostly by fishing trawlers, yachts, and smaller pleasure craft. There is a water taxi across it from the Mayflower Steps on Plymouth Barbican to Mount Batten and also Oreston both on the southern bank. The spelling 'Cattewater' is not old or consistent. Local sources and texts together with early maps and drawings refer to the opening of the estuary variously as Catwater, Cat Water and Catt Water. Internet search engines throw up other versions. (en) La ville de Plymouth, dans le Devon, en Angleterre, est délimitée par le Dartmoor au nord, le Hamoaze à l’ouest, l’étendue d’eau ouverte appelée Plymouth Sound au sud et la rivière à l’est. Le Cattewater est cette étendue d’eau où l’embouchure de la rivière Plym se confond avec le Plymouth Sound, juste à l’est de . C’est autour de cette étendue d’eau qu’a commencé le manoir de Sutton, qui a grandi jusqu’à former la ville actuelle. Sur la rive nord de cette confluence d’eaux, il y avait un affleurement rocheux, qui, a-t-on prétendu, avait l’apparence d’un chat. Cela a donné son nom à cette étendue d’eau, et finalement le nom de Cattedown aux quais et à la zone commerciale adjacents. À l’exception d’un petit pétrolier occasionnellement, la zone est maintenant principalement utilisée par les chalutiers de pêche, les yachts et les petites embarcations de plaisance. Il y a un bateau-bus qui la traverse des Mayflower Steps sur Plymouth Barbican au et aussi à la fois sur la rive sud. L’orthographe « Cattewater » n’est ni ancienne ni cohérente. Les sources et les textes locaux ainsi que les premières cartes et dessins font référence à l’ouverture de l’estuaire diversement comme Catwater, Cat Water et Catt Water. Les moteurs de recherche Internet lancent d’autres versions. (fr) |
