Houseboats on the Tarka Trail

It was another miserable day in North Devon but not to be downcast or even overcast, I went out for a walk anyway. I did get a little wet but what does that matter. There are a couple of houseboats on the Tarka Trail betweem Bideford and Instow which always make a good photographic subject for experimenting with aperture and depth of field. A bonus picture was some cyclists who were also braving…

If anything remains consistent across history, it’s that grown men will act like children and people be causing drama. The bishop here is George Lavington, the Bishop of Exeter who was the Bishop of Exeter from 1746 to 1762. Mr. T I do not yet know the identity of, but he was a clergyman of Methodist leanings in and around the area of Bideford, England. This snippet is taken from a letter written by George Whitefield, the founder of Calvinistic Methodism in the UK, to his benefactor, Selina Hastings the Dowager Countess of Huntingdon, on 15th August 1749 while he was in Plymouth as part of his itinerating preaching tour of the south west of England.

Vicky Lindo and Bill Brookes have taken contemporary ceramic art by storm, winning the grand prize at the British Ceramics Biennial last year. A new look at Staffordshire cats.

Vicky Lindo and her partner, Bill Brookes have been making their ceramics since 2013. They both studied at Herefordshire College of Art and Design and now live and work in Bideford in Devon. They work collaboratively on their designs, and make their own moulds and their work is slipcast in white earthenware clay and then decorated by Vicky using scraffito techniques. They are inspired by traditional English slipware pottery with images that Vicky describes as, 'anything from a funny story heard on the radio, heroic animals, a pattern on an antique rug or a beautiful old tree in the local park.'

Vicky Lindo had joined a pottery class, spending evenings learning sgraffito, a form of decoration made by scratching through contrasting layers of slip or glaze. She suspected she might be on to something when the teacher offered to purchase her first platter, but unfortunately the classes were cut short due to lack of students. Lindo, already hooked, couldn’t stop there. A ‘paint-a-pot’ cafe provided a temporary firing solution and before long the washing machine in the couple’s kitchen was replaced with a kiln….

Bideford with SantaColor 100 film

I have a few rolls of film that it’s taken a while to get developed because I didn’t bother sending them off with all of the postal strikes around Christmas. These pictures are using SantaColor 100 film which I purchased 5 rolls of from a IndieGogo campaign https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/santacolor-100#/. I took a walk around Bideford Quay just to test the first roll and see how it came out.…

Day Ninety-two

The forecast was correct as the rains bucketed down over Ilfracombe this morning. So, I had a good lie in to wait out the high winds and rains to finally start making my way around noon.

My route out from town continued up and up into the high hills, soon entering the low-lying clouds as the day takes on a grey misty tone. The farmlands on the hills around me are only hakf visible in the misty day.

I track my my over Devon's rolling hills to descend from the clouds and rejoin NCN Route 27 at Knowle, which finally begins a nice stretch of smooth flat riding after yesterday's challenge of Exmoor.

The trail tracks around the River Caen as it runs through Braunton, where the skies decide to open once more. With fortunate timing I'm able to be out of the weather as I stop for a ahort break and resupply, and jump back on the path once the rains clear a little.

Out from Braunton, the route passes RMB Chivenor before running along the salt marshes up the wide River Taw, with some good views across the water, before crossing over the bridge at Barnstaple.

It's more lovely smooth flat riding following the old rail line as it heads back down the Taw to Instow, where it turns to follow the River Torridge and down to Bideford.

With the rising along the Tarka Trail being so enjoyable after the tough work yesterday, and wanting to still take things a little easier whilst my throat heals up, I decide to stick with the NCN eoute for a jaunt inland awhile and keep on with Cycle Route 3 as it heads along this excellent old rail line, which will eventually reconnect with the coastline at Bude.

Onwards! The route continues up the River Torridge for a good while now, through leafy green avenues of trees and farmlands. It does an excellent job of keeping nice and level meaning some good easy riding continues on down to Torrington.

The sound of the river flowing nearby is a nice background noise, and the path crosses over it a few times to give some nice sights of it flowing back.

The elevation does start to increase from Torrington as it departs the river and heads up into the hills. Thankfully it plots a gentle gradient and it's not too strenuous a job to ride up the long climb.

After cresting the summit of the hill, it's a good gentle descent back down through more forested areas, which allows a nice break for the legs to cruise along.

My time with the rail line finally ends as Route 3 turns off and back to the roads near Petrockstowe. It's up more hills through North Town as the route starts to lead on through the farming communities dotted around the countryside here.

With the evening setting in I start keeping an eye out for a spot to pitch up for the night, and a patch of trees off the road near Sheepwash presents a convenient location to call it a day.

Not too bad a day all things told. I'm still trying not to go too hard to let my immune system finish off this irritating sore throat, and have been sucking my way through throat sweets for the day. Fingers crossed that the weather is a little brighter tomorrow for some easier going.

TTFN!
