Goats like to stand on stuff
Badger's Holt and Bronze-Age Grimspound, Dartmoor, Devon - 10th August 2016
After a couple of days camping with Sean, Michelle and the gang, we're off over the moor to Grandma J's in Spreyton. But first, we divert to see Grimspound, the ancient Bronze-age settlement on the edge of Dartmoor, and have a walk up to the nearby Hookney Tor. Before that, we stop off at one of Nosher's old Polytechnic-days haunts - Badger's Holt - in the southern half of Dartmoor, followed by a stop off to climb the rocks at Combestone Tor.
