It was a chilly wind that met us when we arrived at Burrator Quarry car park. There were just the four of us booked on this walk, but to our delight, two more joined us in the car park.
A gentle incline took us to the highest point of Yennadon Down, giving us lovely views across the Reservoir. A bit of road walking took us down to Devonport Leat and into the wooded tracks that took us first to Leather Tor Farm remains and then down the Leather Tor Bridge over the Heavy Riven--where lunch was taken.
Descending to Norsworthy Bridge, we then followed the road around to take a track up to a path that skirts Sheep's Tor. Crossing both dams, we found the famously delicious ice cream - Willy's (thanks for your recommendation Margaret).
And so back to the car park.
A lovely walk with some new faces and a delightful day out in God's wonderful creation.
