Another nautical garden as we make our way out of Sidmouth to the west
House name - "Country in the town" in Latin
Past a recently refurbished thatch cottage
Now climbing uphill
Onto the heathland at Muttersmoor
Then downhill
Through fields of sheep
Views over to the distant hills
And then back to Sidmouth as we join the South West Coast Path
Which we follow
With a diversion up to High Peak - a Stone Age and a Roman settlement
Where we have views along the coast
And over Ladram Bay Holiday Park
Where it seems we are welcome
More rock formations
As we now look west along the coast
And then pause in the holiday village
Spotting a heron flying overhead
As we start to climb uphill
Before descending to the river at Clamour Bridge where beaver have been seen
We follow the river upstream
The pebbles on the bottom making strange patterns
On to Otterton
A fish pass on the river
Continuing on the river bank
Eventually crossing
On this bridge
Following a broad track
Views across the valley
As we climb the hill
Passing some old tree stumps with a variety of carvings
Not sure what that one is
The view behind us
As we descend into Sidmouth
Thatcher working away
A famous local
Plenty of seats on the hill
Now reaching the bottom and nearing the town
