Tuesday 3rd October 2017 - Rough Tor

 From Norsworthy Bridge and out through the Arboretum to Roughtor Plantation.

Sheeps Tor

Gutter Tor

Nibbler on one of the rocky outcrops which make up Rough Tor

More outcrops of Rough Tor


On through the woods to the top of the track which leads up from Deancombe

Into the autumn sunshine with Cuckoo Rock and Combeshead Tor on the other side of the valley

Down across the  Narrator Brook and around Combshead Tor to the Stone Row and Circle.

Where Dianne demonstrated the magic of the turning stone!

























Along the ridge towards Down Tor with view over Burrator reservoir and with Leather Tor and Sharpitor in the distance

The abandoned Kingsett Farm


To a spectacular forestry display. A machine which lifts whole felled trees, strips the branches and then chops the trunk into similar sized lengths as if they were matchsticks.

The old blowing house beside the River Meavy

 Lunch at the Royal Oak where we were joined by Terry and Anne. On the walk Jon, Mike, Stella, Peter, Charlie, Dianne and Darren
