The management of the Teign Estuary is vital to the well-being of this unique and diverse area. The Annual Forum provides an opportunity to hear from a variety of speakers on the latest work around the Teign, the impact of new legislation on the marine environment and the latest news around the flood defence schemes planned for both sides of the estuary. In addition we had presentations from the Teignmouth and Shaldon Museum
on Victorian resort heritage and the introduction of Bathing machines. Life beneath the waves as seen by a local diving instructor and the work to protect and preserve the threatened cirl bunting by the RSPB. The appreciate audience was able to keep up to date wit
h developments in estuary maintenance over the past year and the highlight of the evening was the usual sampling of local mussels in a creamy mariniere sauce washed down with wines from a local vineyard. The pictures show the Estuary from Shaldon, the popular River beach area and a tranquil scene at the Passage House jetty up-river.
