Wistman’s Wood Car Park
An abortive trip up to Wistman's Wood but a little bit too far for a 3 year old and a 5 year so we bailed with - I suspect - about a mile to go. One to do when the kids are a bit older.

Stonehouse Heritage Trail 2, The Royal Naval Hospital Boundary Wall
The Hospital was completed in 1762. Its unique design of separate ward blocks, linked together by a covered walkway around a square, was an innovation in its time. During these early days some sailors were pressed men. Once sent to hospital there was an irresistible opportunity to try to escape. To prevent this a high wall was built and guards mounted at the gates and at major vantage points throughout the Hospital
Stonehouse Heritage Trail 6, Phoenix Hall Roller Skating Rink
Rollerskating took England by storm and by the late 19 century Plymouth had half a dozen rinks. In May 1880 the Phoenix Hall Rink was one of the last to open. Another rink. Pavilion New Skating Rink. was located nearby in Martin Street. Various skating prizes could be won. These were usually silver cups or medals but on special occasions, prizes could even include live chickens or a pig to take home!
Dartmoor 365, S4, Skylarks at Clearbrook
A 1.5m circular route, starting at The Skylark at Clearbrook, initially along quiet moorland tracks parallel to but running above the Plym Valley Trail with good views over the valley. Then down to join the trail, a good tarmac'd cycle / pedestrian route back to The Skylark. An easy walk for the kids with lots to see. Caution needed as some bikes travel the trail at speed (it is a bike path).
