The River Pol entering the sea at Polperro harbour

The River Pol, also known as the Polperro River is a small river in southeast Cornwall.

The river rises near the village of Pelynt, and then flows through a steep valley into the hamlet of Crumplehorn before reaching Polperro.

Within the village of Polperro it flows alongside a number of buildings and passes under many bridges, before it finally reaches the harbour and flows into the sea.[1][2]
