Overview

Up the track past Trowlesworthy Warren Farm, passing tinners' spoil heaps and a pillow mound.  Continue past an Iron Age reeve to cross the clay pit leat, then up hill to pass the two tors.  You will note intriguingly shaped stones abandoned  by quarrymen.  Descend to the leat where a double stone row goes from a stone encircled cairn burial site down across it.  Follow the leat back to where you began, inspecting numerous Bronze Age enclosures and hut circles en route.

Turn off the road just south of Cadover Bridge. Where the tarmac goes uphill, turn left on a rough track. Park on the left just short of where the Blacka Brook waterfalls into the Plym Phone me if you would like a lift from The George P&R
