Mustard Seed Walk - Cowsic Stones - 4 Feb 2023

 Simon Dell, that legend of a man kindly led our band of 16 around the old stones carved over 200 years ago by the Reverend Bray.  Quirky yet peaceful, idyllic and thoroughly interesting was Simon’s talk as we clambered, climbed and strolled around Beardown Farm - thank you Harry the farmer. 

New Years Day 2023 Walk - Feather Tor and Pew Tor

 Our New Year's Day walk, this year taken on 2nd January, caught a day of warm sunshine and calm between the gales and rain that we had been battling!  Our walk from Pork Hill car park took a figure of 8 shape to Feather Tor and then Pew Tor.  The walk attracted families, friends and new friends, and even a friend who brought his tramper!

What a great way to start 2023, and we look forward to many excellent walks in God's wonderful earth this year.

Mustard Seed Walk - Pupers Hill

 A great day out with ten of us marching out from Shipley Bridge in the Autumn sunshine, destination Pupers Hill.  After a short stroll up the drive, stopping for a look at Brentmoor House ruins, we went wild and headed through the old Bracken to Dockwell Ridge. Picking up the track around Gripper’s Hill, we soon had Pupers Hill in sight. As we ascended, so the sky clouded over and it got a mite chilly. The rocks at Pupers gave so protection from the wind for lunch before we descended to Huntingdon Cross and back along the Abbots Way the the Avon Dam, from whence it was a gravity assisted stroll back to Shipley Bridge. A great walk in lovely company and magnificent Autumn colours that only an artist after the Creators own skill could achieve! 

MUSTARD SEED WALK - 8th October 2022 - Dr Blackall's Drive

 Our Mustard Seed Walks group took advantage of the fine autumnal weather to enjoy a seven mile walk down Dr Blackall's Drive and down the the River Dart.  What goes down must come up unfortunately and the second half of our walk was spent regaining the height we had lost in the first half - a fine example of the exchange of energy: potential, kinetic, thermal, chemical etc.  But what a lovely walk in God's beautiful creation with excellent company.  

River walk

Strange structures and peaceful pastures were encountered on our river walk around Dartington Hall Estate - 8.2 miles. Rewarded with lemon cake and tea at the Rare Breeds Farm!

Wedding Anniversary

What better way to celebrate 37 years of marriage than to have a night in a Travel Lodge in Glastonbury and visit a Craft for Craftets fair at the Royal Bath and West show ground. The fair was rubbish, but we had a lovely walk around Glastonbury Abbey. 

Fun in the park!

Grandma & Grandad had to child mind while mummy had a tooth filled - what fun!
