Tuesday Morning 18th July 2017 - Pork Hill

A classic Dartmoor walk with five tors, one standing stone and one stone circle. A very, very strong easterly wind as we set off up to Cox Tor - always a good way to blow away the cobwebs.


Down on a direct line to the footpath which goes through Wedlake and up to our second tor...

...White Tor and the customary coffee stop.

Down to the Langstone.

Around the boggy bit and up to the Langstone Stone Circle

 

On to the third tor Roos Tor and the darker skies to the south as the late afternoon storm moved in towards us.

Great Staple Tor was the fourth tor....

...and Middle Staple the fifth tor.

Then it was to the Dartmoor Inn at Merrivale where we received a warm welcome.  It being Tuesday the bakery delivery had not yet arrived so sandwiches were not available. Most had soup which did at least come with a bread role. With Jane, Brenda, Jon, Peter C and Charlie.
