Norsworthy Bridge
Along the familiar track past Deancombe and just as we got near Cuckoo Rock what should we hear but a cuckoo - aptly named obviously. A stop for coffee by the little bridge over Narrator Brook and who should pass by but four of the boys in red. A rather feeble cry of help from Brenda received no response at all. Next up to the potato cave where Brenda once again thought she had spotted the rescue boys on the side of Eylesbarrow but those with slightly better eyesight pointed out that they were actually Devon Reds - similar I suppose. Up to Combeshead Tor then along to the end of the stone row before skirting just below Down Tor and back to the cars, where the midges were out. A pint in The Royal Oak was a pleasant finish to the walk.
A gentle rehabilitation walk on a lovely sunny evening.
