DOWN BY THE MEWSTONE
Now that the evenings are lengthening and the beauty of the coastal South Devon countryside returns
to fill my mind, come with me along the old metalled path from the end of the lonely road high above
Kingswear - marked by a solitary tree - to pass the watchtower looking out over the land as it drops
down to the beautiful River Dart estuary and the ruins of the WW2 coastal battery that still guards
the memory of some of the darkest days these islands have ever known. Take the walk with me
down by the Mewstone.
