TURNCHAPEL JETTY, PLYMSTOCK

Updated:  31 January 2011 

The location of the Turnchapel Jetty is unclear.  It may have been the one on which Island House now stands.

It was reported in January 1881 that Messrs Bulteel had run out a jetty at Turnchapel with the object of off-loading cattle from American ports for slaughtering and despatching to markets all over the country.

This was subject to Government approval and there is no indication that cattle were ever off-loaded from ships at Turnchapel.
