Dappled sunlight highlights the cobbles in this historic path. Traditional cobbles are laid with worn river sandstones set on edge in a clay heavy sub-soil. Centuries of footfall, weather and flora have given the path an aged patina of flinty greys among the moss and rusty leaves

The DA had a wonderful Annual Conference on Saturday at Buckfast. A wide rand of fascinating talks from Heritage Stone to Beryl Cook and an excellent address on museums from our new President, Camilla Hampshire, former Head of RAMM, Exeter.
