The project was based around National Trust land at Gallants Bower, Dartmouth in South Devon and aimed to improve access both up to the Iron Age Hillfort at Gallants Bower and out along the South West Coast Path towards Compass Cove, a little known shingle beach near Little Dartmouth.
Along with lovely weather comes not so lovely stuff like troublesome ticks, blood sucking horseflies and prickly plants such as brambles and thistles (where many of these little nasties like to hide). Below is some advice on what to look out for and how to prevent getting bitten or stung whilst out walking.
