Dist:0.5km<br/>This delightful thatched cottage reminds the passer-by of the style of housing and it relative isolation which must have been common in these parts of Devon in years gone by. On the map and in the photograph one can see how the track contours around the end of the valley.[[826415]]

Dist:0.5km<br/>A large meadow strewn with buttercups stretches away from the Haccombe carriage drive as it curves around a side valley. It joins the main valley at [[825386]].

Dist:0.5km<br/>Another view of the cottage ornée also shown in [[826415]] and [[1210400]]. The sun rarely seems to reach this side of the building, which is "probably early C19" and is a former lodge to Haccombe House. "An attractive thatched lodge is an isolated position" http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=85776&mode=adv. The rustic verandah has (replacement) tree trunks for columns.

Dist:0.6km<br/>A sensible warning as the John Musgrove Heritage Trail reaches the top of Ridgeway Lane. The speeding car is on the busy and much-used ridge road from Milber to Barton. The trail continues up Deer Park Lane, 50 metres to the right.
