WW 4th April 2012
A highly selected group set out on the first walk of the brand new, shiny programme so wonderfully prepared by our most illustrious chief. They were there resplendent in their yellow jackets plodging about here and nowhere. This was the walk of the Fox Tor crosses on rather a cool evening. Out to Seward's Cross and then on to the wonderful incised cross at Whealham Bottom. Swiftly uphill to that most picturesque cross, Northmore's. Managing to find a track to Fox Tor and then down to Childe's Tomb. Onwards round the south of the mire to Goldsmith's before picking out the track to the newest cross on the moor - that bit of plumber's pipe that so accurately marks the way. Back to the cars and on to the PoW which was full of bunnies. No sign of Henry although his mum was there.
You really do have to be there ...
