Haytor Audio Walk Transcript
Transcript of Audio Walk for Haytor Peter Nash – Presenter Jackie Ridley, Sustainable Tourism Officer, Dartmoor National Park Authority Bill Allen, Ranger, Dartmoor National Park Authority Track 1 – Introduction (Grid reference SX765 772) Hello and welcome to Dartmoor National Park, all 368 square miles of it. I’m glad you’re able to join me on this audio walk from Haytor, which is on the eastern side of Dartmoor and is one of the most popular locations with visitors and locals alike. This particular walk not only offers rewards of stunning views and landscapes, but also encapsulates so many of Dartmoor’s special qualities – its natural beauty, its wildlife and, of course its cultural heritage. We’ve divided this audio tour into several sections, each one being a separate track for you to download onto your player. That way you can simply switch off when you are walking and then start the new track at the next point of interest. Our walk today will take us north-west from the new Information Centre, past the most well-known of Dartmoor’s tors, Haytor Rocks, through the old Quarry and out the other side to see the remains of the extraordinary Granite Tramway. Then it’s northwards to Smallacombe Rocks to see prehistoric features and fabulous views across the Becka Brook valley. From there we head to Hound Tor – site of Dartmoor’s most important medieval village and of course, legendary Houndtor Rocks, made famous as the inspiration for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s story of “The Hound of the Baskervilles”. Due south then crossing the beautiful openness of Holwell Lawn, passing Greator Rocks on our right and retracing our steps, emerging eastwards at Haytor Rocks to enjoy far reaching views to the coast. -

DARTMOOR BIRD REPORT 2018 Peter Reay & Fiona Freshney
DARTMOOR BIRD REPORT 2018 Peter Reay & Fiona Freshney [email protected] Scorhill Mire (Gullaven Brook), the best Snipe site during the 2018/19 survey (Fiona Freshney) CONTENTS INTRODUCTION SOME NOTABLE RECORDS WEATHER REFERENCES LOOKING BACK TO THE 2008 REPORT SPECIES ACCOUNTS A SUMMARY OF CURRENT DARTMOOR BIRD RESEARCH 1 INTRODUCTION This report, like those for 2015 and 2017, replaces the Dartmoor Bird Report, published from 1996 to 2014 by the Dartmoor Study Group. It relates to the same geographical area covered both by its predecessors and The Birds of Dartmoor (Smaldon 2005). This comprises the area within the Dartmoor National Park Authority (DNPA) boundary, with the addition of the china clay districts around Lee Moor, Shaugh Moor and Crownhill Down, left out of the National Park designation for political and business reasons. The bulk of the report comprises species accounts, but it also includes brief reviews of the weather in 2018, the Dartmoor Bird Report of 2008 and current Dartmoor bird projects and surveys. A more detailed description of the latter will appear in a Review of Dartmoor Bird Research 2018-19 to be published in Devon Birds in 2020 (Freshney & Reay, in prep.). The species accounts aim to provide a summary of birds recorded on Dartmoor in 2018. It is hoped that the production of the report will encourage more active submission of records and so help create a more complete picture of Dartmoor’s birds in 2019 and beyond. The records used are mostly those submitted to Devon Birds for 2018 (including those from the national BTO surveys) and assigned to the Dartmoor parent site.
