Footpath through Whiddon Valley Woods, on the eastern edge of Barnstaple. Early morning walks with the dog are frequently accompanied by the squirrels running through the trees, and if the dog is lucky, across the path in front of us! The wood is owned by Devon County Council, and was formerly known as Maidenford Woods until 1990. The area is well-maintained, with frequent coppicing, and community projects to maintain interest and keep it clean and in good condition For further information, see the South West Forest web-site at http://www.southwestforest.org.uk/community-woodland/#whiddon-valley
