"TRESPASSERS ARE REQUESTED NOT TO PLAY WITH THE ADDERS" a hand written notice seen on a field fence at Postbridge near the historic clapper bridge. Today notices can be quickly printed on computer printer!
The historic packhorse bridge at Postbridge used by pack horses before the coming of the Moretonhampsted Turnpike in the late 18th Century. It is always a popular location for visitors.
Princetown Square on August 22, 1981. Behind my mother and grandmother walking towards the camera can be seen on the extreme left Lord's Restaurant, in the back ground the now closed Devil's Elbow Hotel. To the right back ground is the Plume of Feathers an 18th Century coaching inn on the cross more Turnpike. The grey - blue building is the former Duchy Hotel - in 1981 it was the Prison Officers' Mess for the nearby HM Prison Dartmoor. Today it is the Dartmoor National Park Visitor Centre.
