On along the super muddy Erme-Plym trail and to Yealmbridge, where large retired vehicles and lobster pots languish behind very secure gates.
Turning left at the toll house, and over the road bridge to join the footpath through a most interesting collection of Snawdon Mill's repurposed buildings and a diversion into the Mothman's gallery.
Coffee stop on footpath steps before crossing bullock field and onwards to the Weir bridge stopping only to admire a secretive orange tip butterfly. A steep well worn rocky climb up to Worston and on past Winsor.
Down now to the mossy double bridge at Lotherton and left into the swamp lands where a bridlepath lurked under deep black gloop. Eventually safely out into sunny green meadows by the Yealm we joined the lane through Yeo Farm and marched with good appetite to the generous table at the Rose and Crown. Some even had tartare sauce with their meal but not the contingency in France !!
