Wistman's Wood on Dartmoor is an ancient oak wood steeped in legend. It's said to be haunted and that it is a sacred Druid's grove where Pagan rituals were held. Other stories tell of huge black dogs with red eyes, yellow teeth and a hunger for human flesh and souls and that the moss coloured boulders are home to large numbers of adders which have an especially venomous bite. While I didn't witness any of those, I am certainly guilty of letting my imagination run away with itself and get a bit jumpy when the rain dripped down my neck from the branches!
