Boringdon Camp is an English Iron Age and Roman earthwork in Cann Woods, near Plympton, Plymouth, Devon. It is a scheduled ancient monument and owned by South Hams District Council. The site is on a hilltop at 140 metres (460 ft) above sea level, with views down the Plym Valley of Plymouth Sound, 11 kilometres (7 mi) away. The site is located immediately behind the Cann Wood parking at the modern road from Plympton to Shaugh Prior. Since 1st April 2016, the site is closed to visitors, however. The reasons given are the erosion of the earthwork due to visitors walking on it, and conflicts between dogs not kept on lead and grazing sheep (the latter being essential for the conservation of the site).The fort is constructed around an earlier ring ditch, and covers an area of around 2 hectares (4.9 acres). The remains consist of a sub-circular enclosure surrounded by an 8-metre (26 ft) rampart and a similarly sized outer ditch. This ditch can still be seen in places, though tree planting has covered some of the defences around the main entrance. To the east of the fort is a banked path, the remains of a medieval road from Plympton to Shaugh Prior. The road was abandoned in the early 19th century. The site was listed as a scheduled ancient monument in 1939. Quarrying in the area has led to disturbance of the site, and part of the area around Boringdon Camp is now a golf course. A former lead mine and its smelt mill are also nearby. The mining remains are also a scheduled monument, as is a deer park which was established in Boringdon Wood in 1699. Traces of another deer park constructed to the east in the early 18th century have also survived.

It lies to the north of the villages of Sparkwell and Hemerdon, and adjacent to the large china clay pits near Lee Moor. The mine had been out of operation since 1944, except for the brief operation of a trial mine in the 1980s. Work started to re-open it in 2014, but it ceased activities in 2018. It hosts the fourth largest tin-tungsten deposit in the world.A new company, Tungsten West plc, now plan to re-open the mine in 2022, after investing to alter the processing plant.

In addition, a subsidiary will enhance the mine with aggregate sales as a by-product of mining.

Chapel House is a Grade II listed building in Plympton, Devon, England. Standing at 10a and 10b Fore Street, Plympton's main street, it is believed to have originally been a town house, later developed into a shop with attached house. It dates to the mid-18th century, but contains older remnants.It is constructed of Killas rubble with limestone dressings. There are keystoned flat arches that are original to the ground-floor doorways.Although its interior has not been inspected by Historic England, it was evaluated by Time Team in 1999. In the episode, architectural historian Beric Morley discovered, in the kitchen, a late 15th- or early 16th-century slack-head doorway made of granite moorstone that had been "laboriously carved" into a moulding. In the long part of the building's L-shape, he found a window of similar style and age. In the attic, an arched braced roof was shown, the particular style being a West Country special that existed from the end of the 14th century through into the 16th century. A dendochronology sampling dated the timbers to around 1470.Number 10b is now known as Becket House.
