DISCOVERING DARTMOOR – Episode 2 – Grimspound to Jays Grave 👻 & Josephine Collingwood

As I continue my Discovering Dartmoor journey I find all sorts of fascinating things like WW2 defences, archaeological sites,  boundary stones, disused railways & quarries and haunted locations!  But the highlight for me in this episode was learning about the geology of Dartmoor from author and photographer Josephine Collingwood.

🔎 ABOUT DISCOVERING DARTMOOR 🔎

I'm Julian Baird, photographer and filmmaker from Devon and welcome to Discovering Dartmoor.

A few years ago I asked myself the questions, “What do I know about Dartmoor?  What makes this place so unique?”

When I couldn’t answer those questions, I made a commitment to myself to not only see more of Dartmoor, but to learn more about it.

And from that commitment, Discovering Dartmoor was born, a 5 part video series where I explore and photograph 24 of Dartmoor's finest locations and speak to some of Dartmoor's most passionate ambassadors so I could find out for myself what makes Dartmoor so special.
