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.

Stunning views across the River Torridge. Fairly easy walking with many good paths. Plenty of civil war history to absorb, and why not try the Torrington 1646 tea rooms for refreshments. Close to the Tarka Trail, part of the old steam railway line and also Henry Williamson's Tarka the otter's trail. More excellent refreshments at the Puffing Billy cafe.

Spectacular views across the valley.

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

Lovely cafe in old station on the NCN27
