This is a lovely little spot away from the crowds that can congregate at Cadover bridge. Follow the clay pipe path through North Wood and as you come out the other side on to West Down, turn left and head uphill, a faint path will zigzag near to the wall, this improves as height is gained. In summer bracken may cover this hillside but the grassy path is beneath and before long you will see Shaugh Beacon to your right. The views are very good, with the Dewerstone in view across the Plym valley. This isn’t the highest spot in these parts but is a lovely lesser known place so keep it quiet!! If you come up here as I have in thick mist you need to find the spot on your OS maps just south of the ‘D’ of West Down on the map. There are no military firing areas near this tor
