This is a final 'high' before the long descent to Exeter and almost sea level. There are some stables nearby, so take care of the horses, and of the slippy poo.

Scooped some water out, filtered it and a made a coffee.

This is a fine example of a classic Mid Devon village with a mixture of thatched cottages and old farmhouses as well as a 14th century church. Spot the grave of Sir Stafford Northcote, a one-time Chancellor of the Exchequer and the 1st Earl of Iddesleigh, in the graveyard.

This wonderful stone bridge, also known as Lower Creedy Bridge, spans the River Creedy between Newton St Cyres station and the village itself. It has large cutwaters and is mostly made from volcanic stone. Likely built during the 16th century, it remains a lovely local feature.

This proud, medieval church stands on the edge of Shobrooke village and, like so many churches in the area, has wonderful views over the rolling, pastoral landscape. The church dates back to the 15th century but the interior is considerably younger, mostly Victorian. If you hike up the lane opposite towards the village centre, you'll find the holy well embedded into a grassy bank on the eastern side.

A 180-acre (73 ha) park, wandering around the grounds is utter bliss. A deer park has been here for hundreds of years and there was also manor house, built in the 18th century. Whilst the house functioned as a school during the Second World War, it sadly burnt down in 1945 and was never rebuilt. Now, the park is sometimes open to the public, with its grand lakes and sweeping vistas. The Devonshire Heartland Way traverses the southern section all year round.
