Moor Critters Boxes / Suffolk Folks

Found one of their boxes over the weekend and would like to inform them of the condition of their box however the phone number stated in the visitor book goes straight to an engaged tone so assume...

thanks
thanks guys for the suggestions and tips and will bear in mind if the weather stays as it is. With regards the Norsworthy Bridge walk this is our favourite walk on the moors, and where we first experienced the beauty of both dartmoor and letterboxing. Our walk consists of parking at norsworthy bridg...

Suggestions for shady walks in the heat
I was wondering if any of you experienced letterboxers could help in this heat please. If this weather continues finding it a bit too hot with the kids to venture too far into the open moors at the moment. Can anyone advise on any river / wooded shortish walks that may be suitable for letterboxing i...

Addicted to little pill pots hidden under stones!!!!!

We were visiting friends who lived in lifton at the time (we came from up north) and i remember the words 'we are going for a walk as at the top you...

Smeardon Down - Obsessed by Rocks 08? & More
Was up little combe tor and Smeardon Down on 30.06.13 and looks like either vandals or DLT have been in operation. 2 pill boxes (1 standard grey colour and a circular tuppaware type container covered in the standard black gaffer tape) were found jammed inside one another but clearly not from the sam...

Little Combe Tor & Smeardon Down
Took my kids to this area today and appears may be a little forgotten about tor (possibly not after this though!). Parking in the quarry car park and headed back to the bridal path down towards the river where a couple of boxes were found on the car park side. As we didn't know if we could cross the...
