Early Yards by Ashley Cox

Second Place, Urban and Industrial Heritage, South West Coast Path Photographer of the Year

Ever since moving to Plymouth 10 years ago, ‘the yard’ has always been my go-to. My place to swim, watch a sunrise and share moments with friends and family. As a designer, I’m always looking for that creative edge, that unique perspective on the world. Recently, drone photography has supplied that; this shot of the harbour, central to Royal William Yard, was taken in the early hours of April 2022, on a sunrise walk.
