WW 5th December 2018
'Tis not often on a mild, wet, gloopy, muddy, squelchy evening that we find somewhere nice and comfortable to sit at a table to have our snack and cuppa.
From Princetown on a proper Dartmoor evening to set out. By the level crossing gate to head down to Bachelor's and round. By the new sign for Conchies Road onto the open moor. Those Conchies soon gave up and we were in that mud. Luckily we found the bridge over the Strane to head for the generator at Peat Cot. We had some slight hope and so it was to be as the lovely Wesleyan Chapel was open. So there we sat on nice comfy chairs by the scrub table to read all about it. A superb shelter on a moisty evening. All too soon time to leave and head up the now very well maintained track, over the road and on. Back by South Hessary, where 'Mend our Mountains' funding has done a superb job, to the PoW. Henry's photos have gone and it looks like some soft refurb is underway - they are tearing up the old carpet.
