My legs and back were not quite right but I wanted to head to the Becka Brook for a swim, in a place where I hadn’t been for years.
The getting there was hard, lots of rocks, bogs and trees but it was worthwhile, a lovely swim.
I then made my way back up to the Haytor Quarry for another dip.
Both of these locations will be found in my next guide book – South Dartmoor Rivers – A swim, walk and history guide.
