The Rydon Inn, Holsworthy, played host this evening to two Border Morris sides, one from each side of the Devon/Cornwall border; Lodestone Border Morris from Lamerton in Devon and The Barrel Morris from Bude in Cornwall.

As usual, there was much drinking and laughing.

Happy Devon Day.

Here are just a few of my favourite places and events to visit across the whole of Devon. What are yours?

Visit Cornwall's castles for only £24 per year (individual membership and single parent families), £36 per year (joint membership and two parent families) by joining the Cornwall Heritage Trust.
https://www.cornwallheritagetrust.org/

Most people pay £20 just to visit Tintagel Castle.
But there’s a way to see all five of Cornwall’s castles - Tintagel, Pendennis, St Mawes, Restormel and Launceston - for only £24 a year.
We’ve explained how it works in the comments 👇
