Swelltor Quarry, near Princetown, Dartmoor, Devon.

These twelve granite corbels lie at the side of the former tramway (visible on the right) about halfway up/down. They were cut for the 1903-4 widening of London Bridge but never used. They were either condemned because of iron marks or were cut too short. Still, they make a convenient stop for a break on the way up to, or down from, the quarry.

Vixen Tor, Dartmoor

Many tors are on private land but since 2003 access by the public to Vixon Tor has been banned, causing protests and mass trespassing, to no avail.

The tor is the highest free-standing rock on Dartmoor and was once popular with climbers, but barbed wire and warning signs now disuade even the couragous.

there have been a lot of #storms this #autumn & #winter, there were some trees down in Lustleigh cleve and Bovey woods, but not so many, considering.

there were loads of twigs & branches down, with oodles of colonies to #lichenSubscribe , although i doubt the many fallen will survive as well as the ones that survived and have stayed aloft in the #temperateRainforest that we're so blessed with around #Dartmoor

I am so pleased by this.

there are wild pine martens in the temperate woodlands of Dartmoor (southern Britain).

it has been ~150 years since this has been the case

amazing work Devon Wildlife Trust!
