This is getting serious now. A 6 mile walk. Rich joined us, and we parked at Drewsteignton in the square beside the pub, church and post office. A delightful post office, by the way, selling everything you need. ( we bought some delicious huge sharon fruit the size of apples mmm)
From the square we walked down the road until we came to a lane marking Moors Way
The lane lead across a couple of fields until we reached the path leading to Fingle Bridge. The trees are turning colour and they were a sight to see.
Fingle Bridge pub and the bridge are an inviting sight. As we walked across the bridge, and looked up on the hill behind it, we could see a deer moving among the trees and undergrowth.
The path follows the river and you have to be careful where you tread as the leaves cover the stones and branches.

A very pleasant walk, and didn't seem that far. We must be getting used to it. A drink at the pub finished the day off nicely.
I can see a pattern forming as to where your walks finish! Glad see Bob and Rich with you. Six miles ... well done you guys ... and kind weather too. The wild beast of Drogo has stolen Rich's jumper. Mandy :O>
