Dewerstone Valley, Shaugh Prior, Dartmoor National Park
The Dewerstone is a Dartmoor beauty spot located on the south western border of Dartmoor National Park. It overlooks the tail of a stunning, steep-sided valley cut by the River Plym as it flows down from high moorland to Plymouth and the South Devon coast. For convenience, we refer to this valley as the Dewerstone Valley.
We've positioned the Dewerstone Valley on Google maps so zoom in on the 'Satellite' setting to see its location.
Roughly speaking, the valley runs north east/south west. Cadover Bridge is at the top of the valley. Shaugh Bridge is at the bottom on the valley. There are car parking areas by both bridges. The Cadover Bridge area opens out onto high moorland. The Shaugh Bridge area is heavily wooded and sits below the Dewerstone and its crags.
