June 14, 2024, Combe Martin & Great Hangman

Following the SW coastal path from Combe Martin up hill heading for Little Hangman hill. Summit is just off the coastal path. Rejoin path & head up to Great Hangman hill with views all around. Turn right from the coast path at a crossroads heading inland following the signed paths back to Combe Martin.
