More on Plymouth

The history of Plymouth goes back to the Bronze Age, when a settlement appeared there. It grew to become a trading post during the Roman Empire. It was at Plymouth that the Pilgrim Fathers sailed off in 1620 for the New World and established the Plymouth Colony (also called New Plymouth) in Massachusetts, United States.

Plymouth experiences a temperate climate. Compared to the rest of England, it is generally wetter and milder here. The annual mean temperature here is 11°C (52°F). The warmest month is July, when the termometer touches 20°C, while the coldest is January, when it dips to 3°C. Plymouth gets most of its rain in the autumn and early winter, due partly to the Atlantic depressions.
