Do you believe in ghosts? The Lych way also known as the "way of the dead" is a path steeped in history. Its roots are firmly set deep in the days when every person on the moor was expected to attend their church for services and burials. Part of it runs through our land. Although I personally have never experienced anything spooky the following is from a lady that used to keep her horse with me:
"I have had an interesting experience this evening, and I have been trying to do some research as to why. I keep my horse liveried on the Lych Way at Stepping Stones. I was walking up the path from the stable to my car when I saw a tall thin black silloutte infront of me. I opened and shut my eyes as I just assumed it was a trick of the dark, but when my eyes refocused, it was still there moving along towards the left of my vision. I walked into it, still think it was a shadow of my eye and it would stay to my left but I actually stepped into the black. I was knocked backwards off balance as if I had walked straight into someone although I didn't feel anything! I turned to the left to see what it was and saw a whole line of these tall black shadows going away from me across the field towards the stepping stones. I felt a shameful feeling like I had interrupted a procession and hastily made my way back to the car!

Unfortunately we lost a gosling last night. I found its body down stream and something had obviously been eating it. I can only pray that whatever took it doesn't come back for more. Nature is so cruel sometimes 😞#lowerwillsworthy #countrylife #wildlife #canadiangeese #canadiangeesefamily #sad #naturelovers #Nature

I'm so excited, the goslings were hatched last night/ this morning. Just in time for our guests checking in tomorrow! I'm afraid you will have to put up with lots of gosling posts now. I've counted 4, possibly 5 but they are all nestling under their mummy. I'm probably not going to get any work done today now 😅 . . . . #lowerwillsworthy #canadiangeese #goslings #goose #animallovers #wildlifelovers #wildlife #cute #love #instagood #holidaycottgesuk #dartmoor #dartmoorholidaycottage #visitdevon #visitdartmoor
