Stover Canal

I attended a slide show and talk on the history of the Stover Canal and the plans for its future. This was given by the Chairman of Stover Canal Society. I had previously bought the book by Helen Harris ' The Haytor Granite Tramway and Stover Canal. Mr Harding's presentation gave the experience of "living " in the age of the 18th Century and the Templer family. My daughter accompanied me and we indulged in a delightful supper given by the committee to which we gladly gave a monetry contribution which will go towards the further clearing of the canal giving an added amenity to the community enjoying the countryside along Templer Way a walking route described in 'Kingsteignton Ways' the parish walks guide, www.stovercanal.co.uk
