Overview

From Yelverton we will walk through Crapstone and on to Buckland Monachorum.  After an early coffe stop we will proceed to Milton Combe and then up to Upper Road Plantation.  We cross the A386 (with care) and then follow the leat towards Clearbrook and then back to Yelverton.  A moderate yomp of about 11.5 miles with 950ft of climb.  There are plenty of rough tracks and one steep uphill along with some quiet lanes and well worn easy paths.  I think there is at least one stile.
