From Aveton Gifford, over Waterhead Bridge and along Avon Estuary Walk. HP, in lush green pasture, seemed a little S of the OS spot height. | jonglew | 27/01/2017 |
From tidal road, under oak branches, up Drunkards Hill byway to domed sheep pasture with indistinct highpoint. Boat beached at Bantham, Avon River estuary. | Denise | 08/10/2016 |
Along field boundaries from Drunkard's Hill byway so wonder why it's not called Drunkard's Hill? Grass grazed by sheep. Good views of rolling farmland with Dartmoor rising in the distance. | RichardM | 08/10/2016 |
