The River Plym from the start at Cadover
Low cloud almost down to Great Trowlesworthy Tor, still plenty of cars in the car park at Cadover despite the weather
Looking back from Devils Rocks, the Plym valley on the right, the top of the Dewerstone is to my right here
The old tram tracks that would have been used to move quarried granite down to Shaugh Bridge
The River Plym at Shaugh Bridge
We’ve crossed to the other side of the River Plym and climbed up to the path into North Wood, here we look across to the Dewerstone
And again from further along the path
Looking back as we enter North Wood heading back to Cadover and the car
