Tuesday 22nd September - Harford Moor Gate

As always, through the very narrow lanes to get to the start of the walk which takes you to the southern most tip of Dartmoor. We could see the rain in the distance over Cornwall and we hadn't gone very far before it started.

On the way up to....

...Spurrell's Cross.

Next it was across to Ugborough Beacon which can be seen in the distance.

By the time we had got to the top the rain had stopped and the sun had appeared.

Of course, there are always some who must get on top. A coffee stop and then across to the nearby disused quarries with a fine view out to sea.

Western Beacon is in the distance.  We headed down past Crebers Rock and up to Butterdon Hill.

Back down to the railway track to return to the cars.  The pub was the Cornwood Inn but contrary to what was displayed on  the sign outside it was closed so we headed to the bar at Wotter but that was closed too.  So we returned to the Devon Tors in Yelverton and whilst the food was good the beer was not!

With Jon, Roger, Terry, Darren, Dianne, Anne and Linda.
