Plymouth i / plɪməθ / miasto i jednostka administracyjna położona na południowym wybrzeżu Devon w Anglii, około 190 mil na południowy zachód od Londynu. Znajduje się między ujściami rzek Plym na wschodzie i Tamar na zachodzie, gdzie łączą się z Plymouth Sound. Od 1967 miasto Plymouth obejmuje przedmieścia Plympton i Plymstock, które leżą po wschodniej stronie rzeki Plym. Historia Plymouth sięga do epoki epoki brązu, kiedy to pojawiła się pierwsza osada w Mount Batten. Osada ta nadal była jako punkt handlowy dla Imperium Rzymskiego, dopóki nie osiągnęła ona większego zamożności wieś Sutton, obecna Plymouth. W 1620 roku Ojcowie Pielgrzymów opuścili Plymouth na Nowy Świat i założyli kolonię Plymouth - drugą amerykańską osadę w Stanach Zjednoczonych Ameryki. W czasie wojny domowej w Anglii miasto było w posiadaniu parlamentarzystów i było oblężone w latach 1642-1646. W okresie rewolucji przemysłowej Plymouth rozwijał się jako komercyjny port żeglugowy, obsługujący import i pasażerów z obu Ameryk, a sąsiednie miasto Devonport rosło jako ważne Royal Naval stoczni i miasta stoczniowego.
