This information has been produced by the Dartmoor National Park Authority in conjunction with Dartmoor For All, and is designed to help and encourage those who are disabled, less mobile or have young children, to relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet of the beautiful countryside in the Dartmoor area. This information will help you to make the right choices for your day out. Nearly half of Dartmoor is registered common land. Under the Dartmoor Commons Act 1985, a right of access was created for persons on foot or horseback. This right extends to those using wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs and mobility scooters, although one should be aware that the natural terrain and gradients may curb access in practice. Common land and other areas of 'access land' are marked on the Ordnance Survey (OS) map, Outdoor Leisure 28.

    Geoscience in south-west England SOIL GAS ANOMALIES IN THE DARTMOOR AREA G.A. DUDDRIDGE Duddridge, G.A. 2001. Soil gas anomalies in the Dartmoor area. Geoscience in south-west England, 10, 000-000 Geochemical work was carried out at a sampling density of 1/km2 in the South Zeal to Lustleigh area, along a 30 km length of the Sticklepath Fault. The survey revealed high soil gas helium, carbon dioxide and radon in areas close to the fault and at a number of other locations. Both the soil gas analysis and stream patterns suggest a fault zone rather than one single structure. The low density soil gas mapping and previous work has shown that soil gas helium has not been recorded higher than 604 ppb above normal atmospheric levels in the Dartmoor area. Carbon dioxide was only exceptionally above 6% and radon showed higher activity both in relationship to the granite and faulting. 67 Higher Exwick Hill, Exwick, Exeter, EX4 2AW, U.K. (E-mail [email protected]). INTRODUCTION Helium and carbon dioxide are normally present within the soil pores and concentrations are often above the normal atmospheric levels of 5220 ppb and 0.035% respectively. Radon is also, often present. Soil gas values may be particularly high when measured above faults and fractures which form permeable pathways for the gases. The measurement of these gases may be carried out using the methods described in Duddridge et al. (1991) and Duddridge and Grainger (1998). There is no specific concentration of helium (He) and carbon dioxide (CO2), or activity level in the case of radon (Rn), that sets a threshold for a soil gas anomaly.

  • Drewsteignton Settlement Profile
    Drewsteignton September 2019 This settlement profile has been prepared by Dartmoor National Park Authority to provide an overview of key information and issues for the settlement. It has been prepared in consultation with SettlementParish/Town Profile: Councils Drewsteignton and will be updated as necessary. 1 Introduction Drewsteignton, located in the northeast part of the National Park, is set in an elevated position, north of the River Teign. Lying outside the granite mass of the high moor, the area has a complex geology; the working of limestone and metalliferous minerals played an important role in the development of the village. Originally a service centre for the surrounding agricultural community, that role has now declined. Below the village, on the River Teign, lies the popular beauty spot of Fingle Bridge. Castle Drogo, another busy tourist attraction, lies to the south-west of the village.

  • Tavistock Ramblers
    Tavistock Ramblers Summer 2020 Advert Cotswold Outdoor Summer 2020 Walks Programme Reflections From The Chair ne way of remembering which way to move the hour hand when the clocks Ochange is to say “Spring Forward, Fall Back”. Well spring is upon us, and despite the gloomy weather we have had of late, we hope this programme will inspire you to spring forward with the optimism of more spring-like weather. It has been established that walking can increase muscle tone, boost metabolism, ease stress, raise energy levels, improve sleep and could help with weight loss. That is provided a good day out walking doesn't give you too good an appetite. Calories you may have lost through going up hill, down dale, negotiating mud, jumping streams, clambering stiles etc (all part of a Tavi Rambler’s day out) have often been promptly re-established by the not uncommon cream tea or gooey cake afterwards. That, too, has its positive points (not necessarily the calorie intake) in that it is where the social side of walking with a group kicks in: friendships are formed, relationships even, some who have arrived with problems have derived support through friendship and consistency. This tends to be a further by-product of walking, indeed it is often the case with a lot of shared interest groups, particularly so in walking’s case where the group could well have puffed up hill, slithered down through mud, braved whatever the weather throws at us (character building I admit, but not untypical). So with this spring programme, spring into life, put a spring in your heels and get out there.
