Tuesday 28th June Noss Mayo

Looking from Noss Mayo to Newton Ferrers - which is one of those picture postcard places - always pretty even when the tide is out and the sun isn't shining brightly.   Places with million pound homes, holiday cottages, lots of boats and an expensive pub.


We followed the road out along side the estuary under the trees



Past the ferry  point to Warren Point and looking up the river Yealm.

Across to the church at Wembury....

.....and to the Great Mew Stone and Rame Head in the far distance

The old carriageway looking towards Blackstone Point

With a break for lunch just above Stoke Point.

St Anchorite's Rock had been our ultimate destination but we had gone far enough - this was for another day. So unusally we  just retraced our footsteps - the views were just as spectacular the the other way!

 By now the hazy cloud had lifted and we had bright sunshine - the sea was now really blue and sparkling.

Towards Gunrow's Down.


  Back into the estuary - with just a glimpse of Dartmoor in the distance.



By now the tide had come in...

...and Newton Ferrers was truly a complete picture postcard again!


Walking today Brian, Roger, Colin, Amber, Terry and Rosemary.
