The head of the Dewerstone (the 'Devil's Stone' - where the Devil (or Dewer - an old Celtic word for Devil) would hurl travelers into the gorge to be consumed by the hounds of hell. This is where Conan-Doyle got his inspiration for the Sherlock Holmes mystery 'The Hound of the Baskervilles'. My favorite woods...

A disused farm gate rests against a traditional Devon bank in the valley of the Dart. In the fore ground are large, lichen covered granite boulders, all enclosed in the woodland that encloses the river.

a vibrant flowering crabapple tree (a 'Prairifire' variety)covered in a beautiful display of deep pink to red to magenta blossoms stands on a lush green lawn. in the background, a portion of a red house is visible with rosemary bushes in front of it. several tall evergreen trees are in the background. the sky is a bright blue with light, wispy clouds.

Of the hundreds of trees on our property this Prairifire Flowering Crabapple (Malus 'Prairifire’) is definitely my favorite and it’s showing its full beauty right now.

A little used occupation bridge in woodland on the 'Withered Arm' (part of the former London & South Western Railway in Devon. The line was closed in the 1960s. The trackbed here is now almost a bog & nature has largely reclaimed the track. These bridges are one of the few structures left standing.

Deep in this valley are hidden the remains of long abandoned buildings for both quarrying of granite and gunpowder mills. The valley is a tad damp (which is why it was chosen for gunpowder manufacture) & is also a small fragment of temperate #rainforest.

A native deciduous sapling struggles to grow in the middle of a commercial conifer plantation. Here it is highlighted by the afternoon sun peeking through the plantation canopy.

For #ForestFriday & #scape day

There's not often much to see in a conifer plantation - but occasionally a native deciduous tree manages to assert itself. Only rarely are they allowed to grow.

Black and White. Standing in a hedgerow a tree with a short main trunk, it's branches spread out to form a tulip shaped bowl. It is planted on the edge of a field where rows of newly sprouted winter wheat lead to the base of the tree.

I'm not sure what species the tree is (Google seems to think it's a 'Crack Willow' - Salix fragilis), Taken October 2025 in North Essex, UK - any idea, anybody ?
