02/09/2022 | From Black Tor Falls to Crazywell Pool and more…

There’s a lot to see on this walk: the Devonport Leat, an aqueduct, a waterfall, a blowing house, two prehistoric stone rows and a Bronze Age settlement, Crazywell Pool and Cross, and Leather Tor clapper bridge. In between are some magnificent moorland views as we walk alongside the leat and some riverside/woodland walking as we follow the Meavy upstream at the end of the walk. There will be the opportunity to swim in Crazywell Pool, weather permitting. It’s a safe and (relatively) warm body of water. Well behaved dogs on leads welcome.
