The Walk - EP 102 - The Abandoned Remains On 'The Granite Way' - Okehampton to Lydford - Dartmoor

I am down in the Dartmoor National Park, for a walk along 'The Granite Way'. Me and my friend Turlough are walking an 11 mile section of the disused London & South Western Railway's line from Exeter to Plymouth. We're in the sunshine, in an area of outstanding natural beauty, and there are plenty of historical remains to be found. We start out at Okehampton station, and follow the former line down to Meldon quarry, where there are tonnes of railway infrastructure still in situ, including carriages and wagons. We head over the stunning 1874 Meldon viaduct, one of only two built in this way, in the UK. We follow the line across Lake Viaduct, and look at remains of railway stations, workers huts, and peat railways, before finishing the walk in the picturesque Devonshire village of Lydford. Easily one of my favourite walks so far. I hope you enjoy. Support the channel below: Merch - Check out the shop here - https://garethickeshop.teemill.com/co...
