Plymouth (Latitude: 50°25N, Longitude: 4°5W) is a city and unitary authority in South West England. Historically, it is part of the county of Devon and was Britain's greatest naval base. Now one of Britain's few remaining naval dockyards, it is situated at the mouths of the rivers Plym and Tamar. Heavily blitzed by the Luftwaffe during World War II, Plymouth was one of the English cities to be rebuilt by Patrick Abercrombie in the 1950s.

Plymouth became the first town incorporated by the English Parliament on November 12, 1439. On April 1, 1998 it became a unitary authority.

Modern Plymouth is actually an agglomeration of three separate towns: Plymouth, Devonport and East Stonehouse; this amalgamation occurred in 1914, and prior to the merger, they were referred to collectively as "The Three Towns".
