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.
