Wednesday Walk 10–12

Greencombe,Porlock,TA24 8NU

09 Jan 2019

00:00

This is a good walk if you’re in the mood for some fresh air and exercise while feeling a sense of purpose. We’ll start our walk along Coleridge Way from the back gate of Greencombe Gardens TA248NU. From 10.00 to 12.00 we’ll enjoy a walk along foot and bridal paths, where there may not be much to pick up. This jaunt will take us uphill, where we’ll come out of the wood onto Porlock Hill, where there may be quite a bit of litter. I prefer to use an old [handled] shopping bag for litter pickup, as I feel that carrying around a plastic trash bag isn’t easy, and it adds to the [non-biodegradable] plastic trash buildup in our waste stream. Please email me to confirm you’ll join this walk. .

Huntsham
Huntsham is a tiny village in mid Devon. For the last four years, Huntsham Society members and our local community (farmers and all) have joined forces twice a year to clean up all the many the lanes for a distance of 2-3 miles from the village; once in April before the verges are hidden in new growth, and once in October when the vegetation has died down and the litter can be seen. This April we had a turnout of over 100 helpers, including many children. We have recently combined our efforts with Mid Devon County Councils campaign to help keep Devon clean and green, also twice a year. It would be fantastic if neighbouring parishes could take up the challenge of keeping the lanes clear of litter.
