Hello, My name is Bob Haworth, I'm the voluntary warden for Throwleigh and Gidleigh. This site is a diary of the work of a VW and wildlife sightings. May 9, 2016. This year’s Ten Tors challenge was a week earlier than usual. The weather was nearly perfect for the youngsters taking part. At the briefing it’s stressed that the Ten Tors is not a competition, but teenagers being what they are take little notice of that. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

https://dnpwarden.wordpress.com/2016/06/15/strimming-season
Hello, My name is Bob Haworth, I'm the voluntary warden for Throwleigh and Gidleigh. This site is a diary of the work of a VW and wildlife sightings. June 15, 2016. Strimming sections of the National Park footpaths begins towards the end of June. Although vegetation is quite dense by early June, clearing the paths is left as late as possible to allow flowers and grasses to seed and to give nests and fledglings an extra chance.

La Wallen Chapel | DNP Voluntary Warden
https://dnpwarden.wordpress.com/2016/04/09/la-wallen-chapel
Hello, My name is Bob Haworth, I'm the voluntary warden for Throwleigh and Gidleigh. This site is a diary of the work of a VW and wildlife sightings. April 9, 2016. It is thought that one Robert de Middlecote held masses there and that ‘on the 28th of March, 1328 he raped Agnes, daughter of Roger the Miller in or around the chapel of La Wallen.’ There has been a mill at Gidleigh since 1194 and it’s possible that the cleric would come into contact with local residents.

The exposed bridges and hut circles have been attracting lots of visitors in recent weeks, it’s not often that the stream under the bridge is reduced to the level it must have been before the valley was flooded.

Hello, My name is Bob Haworth, I'm the voluntary warden for Throwleigh and Gidleigh. This site is a diary of the work of a VW and wildlife sightings. February 1, 2016. It easily becomes mildly competitive, the hour goes by quickly, I end up urging the regulars to hurry up and make an appearance. This year, ‘the lad in the crimson bloomers’ made a very late appearance! Rain, wind, snow and sun. One thought on “ RSPB Birdwatch. February 18, 2016 at 6:01 pm. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Lots of Water | DNP Voluntary Warden
https://dnpwarden.wordpress.com/2016/11/22/lots-of-water
Hello, My name is Bob Haworth, I'm the voluntary warden for Throwleigh and Gidleigh. This site is a diary of the work of a VW and wildlife sightings. November 22, 2016. Heavy rain overnight caused the upper Teign at Scorhill to cover the two clapper bridges. The moor is pretty soggy now. Some were tiddlers but most were good sized fish up to about 18 inches. I was told that few get up as far as Scorhill, most are heading for smaller tributaries like Blackaton brook. At least one made it! Teignhead Farm, ...
