Part of the Tarka Trail

Great cafe in a good cycling area, with loads of outside space for big groups.

A slot in the side of the canal were used to hold a stop board which was used to isolate a stretch of the canal that was leaking, to allow repairs to be made.

The roving bridge used to carry the driveway to Beam House, and was used by horses to cross over the canal to the towpath on the other side without unhitching. The bridge underwent restoration in 2000 by Lord Clinton.

The canal linked Torrington to the tidal lock at Rolle Quay, Landcross, and was used to transport lime from Wales. Construction of this 7 mile route started in 1823 and was officially opened in 1827. The path follows the route of the towpath used by horses, and runs from the Tarka Trail near Beam House to Reeds Field at the edge of Torrington Common.

Climb up to Frithelstock Stone.

A bench to offer a seat to ease weary legs from the climb, with spectacular views across the Torridge valley.

Large flocks of starlings can be seen in late summer after riding under the bridge. The bridge offers great views along Bideford Quay and on the Torridge Bridge.
