Scope and Content
Sanford, John. The tourist's companion; being a guide to Devonport, Stoke, Morice-Town, Stonehouse, and Plymouth. Devonport: W. Colman, c.1825. p. 224.[
] a short walk will conduct us to the ancient borough of Plympton, which contains four principal streets, and was the baronial seat of the earls of Devon, the vestiges of whose former magnificence are traced in the present remains of the castle. The artificial mount, on whose summit the keep was erected, is one of the most perfect specimens now in existence, and the remnants of the walls, as well as the fosse, attest its ancient strength.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
