.[1] GeographyThe creek is in Mylor civil parish[2] and forms an inland tidal lake. It is approximately {{convert|800|ft|m}} at its widest point and just over a mile (1.8 km) long from its tidal limit at Mylor Bridge to its mouth at Mylor Churchtown where it discharges into Carrick Roads.[1] Locations
HistoryAt the entrance to the creek was the most westerly naval dockyard and victualling station in Britain, which, at high tide, covered {{convert|66|acre|ha}} of water.[3] During the second half of the 19th-century it was the base for HMS Ganges, a training ship for boys, and also the Falmouth Packets. During World War II the harbour was a base for operations conducted by the French Resistance. It is now home to the last remaining fleet of oyster fishermen.[4] RecreationCarrick Roads and Cornwall's English Channel coast are popular for yachting and dinghy racing. Restronguet Sailing Club (which takes its name from Restronguet Creek a mile to the north) has its base at Mylor Harbour,[5] a large yacht marina immediately north of Mylor Churchtown.[6] References1. ^1 Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 204 Truro & Falmouth {{ISBN|978-0-319-23149-4}} {{Cornwall|state=collapsed}}{{Cornwall-geo-stub}}{{England-river-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://mapping.cornwall.gov.uk/website/ccmap/ |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2012-02-05 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100505124940/http://mapping.cornwall.gov.uk/website/ccmap/ |archivedate=2010-05-05 |df= }} Cornwall Council online mapping.
