A strong cold wind that stayed with us all day pushed us 
past many ancient stones and sites that were largely unobvious until we reached white barrow that if identified correctly was a row of barrows! ↑↑↑
past many ancient stones and sites that were largely unobvious until we reached white barrow that if identified correctly was a row of barrows! ↑↑↑ The Lich way (the way of the dead)we are following hence the title of the blog was in distant times the route for settlements around Dartmoor to bring their dead for burial!
To us the lich way just died out! This was largely obscure at best to just not there! The recent rain had still to soak away and the ground was boggy and streams were in spate, which made crossing an experience, either leaping rock to rock or giving in and wading in knee deep torrents!
Over the last stream the path was gone and nothing ahead was going in our direction so compass being taken we headed over the last hills and down to the village of Post bridge... Stunning 13/14th century clapper bridge here!
And The east dart inn.... Yeah a room was had for the night!
Deserved!
