Quite a few years since I last camped on Dartmoor. Nonetheless I was pleased to read today that the right to wild camp on the moor has been upheld in a unanimous ruling by the judges of the Supreme Court. In fact Dartmoor has long been the only place in England where wild camping is legal.

 The four thousand acre Blachford estate was bought by a wealthy couple who subsequently sought to ban camping. That provoked a good deal of controversy but sanity has prevailed.
