Overview

Leisurely walk with good views circumnavigating Manton House.  No significant hills.  No stiles.  We pass through grey Wether stones and visit the Devils Den.  It would be possible to shorten this walk to circa 5 miles by an easily self navigable short cut.  The short cut would not visit Devils Den.

There may be livestock en route and sticks may be useful as it may be slippery.  Please bring refreshments for one stop.  We will be back for lunch.
