Editing Looe Valley Line (section)

===Beside the estuary===

After passing [[Sandplace railway station]] the railway follows the east side of the river, which is now a tidal estuary that the line follows to its terminus. The line passes over one more level crossing, the unusual Terras Crossing, where the road approaches the crossing over a causeway that is liable to flooding at high tide, so the footpath is raised on boards alongside. The ruin of the final lock of the canal is on the east of the line here.

After running further alongside the tidal estuary the line finally arrives at [[Looe railway station]], opposite the point at which the West Looe River flows into the East Looe River to form the tidal Looe harbour.  The town centre is a five-minute walk further alongside the river and buses to [[Polperro]] stop on the road near the station.

All distances along the line are measured from the point near the seven-span road bridge across the river where the Liskeard and Looe Railway connected with the private sidings on Buller Quay.  The original station, now the site of the Police Station, was 14 [[Chain (unit)|chains]] (308 yards or 282m) north of this point, but the simple station of 1968 construction is forty yards north of this:  thus the mile post marking ¼ mile from the  original end of the line is in fact opposite the current platform, just 20 yards from the present southern end of the line.
