Wallabrook Bridge, Devon

Located in Chagford, Devon, South West England, England
Walla Brook is a small stream that rises at Walla Brook Head by Whitehorse Hill and Hangingstone Hill in the high moors of Dartmoor National Park. Wallabrook Bridge spans the stream just before it joins the North River Teign by Scorhill Down
Just to the south, the Teign-e-ver Clapper Bridge spans the North River Teign
In the immediate area, we'd recommend seeing the Tolmen Stone (North River Teign) and Scorhill Stone Circle, Shovel Down Stone Rows and Chagford Common Rock Basins
To visit this area, we'd suggest you start at the car parking area by Batworthy Corner below Kestor Rock. Alternatively, head in from the car parking area by Scorhill Farm near Gidleigh
If you're new to the area and are crossing Wallabrook Bridge on your way to the high moors around Watern Tor and Wild Tor, *do not* try to cross the boggy ground between Walla Brook and Gallaven Brook. Instead, walk beyond Scorhill Stone Circle to Gidleigh Common and then trend west on this higher ground towards Hound Tor (North Dartmoor)
