Overview

Our walk starts in the quiet village of Sheepwash deep in rural Devon. Leaving the village we will be walking by lanes, tracks, field paths and woodland paths through the undulating agricultural scenery. The farming is both stock and arable. On our way we will pass Buckland Filleigh House  and church, and shortly after the old Buckland timber and grain mill.  Splendid views in good weather.

Ups and downs, muddy in wet weather, stiles, dogs on leads only.

Please bring refreshments for coffee and lunch stops.

Bookings by text to walk leader please.
