Watchet, a charming Somerset harbour town, boasts a rich history as a Saxon port and Viking raid site. Now a marina, it offers fossil hunting, the West Somerset Railway, and museums. Nestled between Exmoor and Quantock Hills, it inspired Coleridge’s "Ancient Mariner."

Tarr Steps, an ancient clapper bridge on Exmoor, spans the River Barle with 17 large stone slabs built 1000 BC, its robust prehistoric design resists floods

It also forms part of the Two Moors Way.

Two Moors Way, Day 4 | 15 miles to Morchard Bishop, Mid Devon

Walked from Crockernwell to Morchard Bishop through Mid Devon's rolling hills on the Two Moors Way.

The weather and scenery were incredible, but I felt the burn after this fourth consecutive day hiking.

Two Moors Way - Grimspound Iron Age Settlement - Dartmoor

On day three of the Two Moors Way, I walked from Grimspound Iron Age Settlement to Chagford, about 7 miles.

Grimspound, a Bronze Age settlement on Dartmoor, has a circular stone enclosure with 24 hut circles. Near Hookney Tor, it offers insights into iron age life.

Chagford, a historic Dartmoor town, thrives with its medieval Stannary heritage. By the River Teign, it features charming shops, ancient churches, and a vibrant community, attracting visitors year-round.

Walking the Saint's Way Pt.1 | Wild Camp on Helman Tor | Naturehike Cloud Up 2 Pro.

The Saints’ Way, or Forth an Syns, is a historic 30-mile trail across Cornwall, England, from Padstow to Fowey. Dating back to around 500 AD, it was used by early Christian pilgrims and traders traveling from Ireland and Wales to Brittany, avoiding treacherous coastal waters.

The route linked monastic sites, with evidence of Celtic saints like St. Petroc influencing its path. Marked by ancient stone crosses, it reflects Cornwall’s medieval heritage.

Though its use declined after the Middle Ages, it was rediscovered in the 20th century, revived in 1986 as a scenic walking trail celebrating the region’s spiritual and cultural past.

For me this was a personal pilgrimage.

Save Cornwall, Save England.

Polruan - Remote Coastal Village

Polruan, a coastal village in Cornwall, England, has a rich history tied to shipbuilding, peaking in the 19th century with schooners and ketches, its economy now leans on almost entirely on tourism.

The 2021 census population was 534, however most of these people live in council properties, with holiday homes for the wealthy left mostly unoccupied for 6 months of the year.

Polruan was once a place that held pride in the old British navy and privateer front, a leading supplier of warships and fighting men it was once famed for providing (along with Fowey) more ships and sailors to the siege of Calais than London.

History written, but this past is now gone.

Save Cornwall, Save England.

Dartmoor Dystopia (Political Ramblings #1)

Dartmoor was hit by a snow storm this week, and yours truly got caught in it, perfect preparation for a future nuclear winter.

In this video, World War Three, The Farmers Protests, & Depopulation, are discussed during a camp and ramble through a dystopic Dartmoor landscape. The snow was heavy, the temperature COLD.

Details of the equipment used in this camp are in the thread.

This is a new video series in which politics, war, culture, and society are discussed against the backdrop of camping during winter on the South West's beautiful moorland, coastlines, and forests. I genuinely hope you enjoy the content, if you do, drop a reply in the thread, like, and share.

Thank you, Darren
