28th March 2019. Slapton Village; Chillington; Mattiscombe; Beesands; Torcross; Slapton Beach; Slapton Ley.
The Wednesday Walkers benefited from a very warm and sunny day and before the end of March, with temperatures approaching 20º C. Some of our group wearing shorts!
As we passed through Widdicombe House grounds, we were treated to wonderful displays of Camellias; Magnolias; Cherry Blossom and Rhododendron, all in full colour.
The day was taken at a leisurely pace, with lunch at a picnic table on Beesands and afternoon tea on the inside edge of Slapton Ley.
Repairs to sea defences, as a result of the winter storms, 2017/2018 had been completed. However we have our reservations concerning their quality and effectiveness, bearing in mind restrictions on capital spending
Total mileage 9.46 miles. 945 ft summated elevation.
