A pre-Halloween walk taking in areas of spookiness and folklore, as devised by David Phillips (The Storyteller from the Torbay Weekly), that follows the route of a triangle linking Jay's Grave to Granny Mann's altar on the slopes of Easdon Tor and Bowerman's Nose (with a stop at Manaton Church). If time allows we may visit Hound Tor medieval village. The route is mainly lanes and footpaths with a steady climb up to Bowerman's Nose.
Distance: approx 7 miles
Allow: approx 3 to 4 hours to include stops for storytelling
Start time: 10am
