DELABOLE Primary School received a special visit from TV star, Martin Clunes, on Tuesday.

Popularly known as Doc Martin, he opened the school's new outdoor trail.

The majority of the internal school scenes for the Doc Martin series were filmed at Delabole Primary School and pupils, both past and present, have appeared in various episodes, along with some members of staff.

Over the years, Buffalo Pictures Ltd has donated to the school for the use of its premises and this was allocated to partly fund the project. The trail was then fabricated by Jonathan Thomas, of Creative Wood, using coloured recycled plastic and Green Scheme Solutions Ltd laid the rubber mulch.
