VALLEY of ROCKS

Valley of Rocks, or 'Valley of the Rocks', is a local Exmoor beauty spot on the north Devon coast a couple of miles west of Lynton.  There is an easy walk from the town, along a well-made path.  The sea views are wonderful and you may see the odd feral goat. RD Blackmore said that a wise woman once lived there, well known all over Exmoor by the name of Mother Melldrum.  The dry valley was possibly formed by a previous course of the East Lyn River.
