Just four of us at the start for the walk out from Norworthy Bridge to visit three of the farms abandoned when the reservoir was built. A warm, hazy day but with a cooling breeze. First up to Leather Tor bridge and Leather Tor farm. Out along the leat to the aqueduct which hardly has any water tumbling down at this time. Then over to Crazy Well Pool which is looking very pretty in the sunshine with all the gorse out on the banks. On to the Devon Tors at Yelverton for lunch - this was excellent value and excellent quality. Keith ordered a trio of sausages and got four! We were joined by Bill who had been late for the start and did his own thing. Subsequently read in the Tavistock Times that the landlord of the Devon Tors has pleaded guilty to attempting to pervert the course of justice and has been sent away for eight months - will the pub survive?
