	River Walkham
		Encountered "angry man" on footbridge where the Tavy joins the Walkham marked on the os map as "Double Waters" shouting that we should not be canoeing the river and wanted our names.
		The river narrows and is confined by bedrock banks, forming numerous eddies along the banks; indeed this section is excellent for a small group learning to 'eddyhop' down a river.
		The upper sections of the Walkham are somewhat harder and possible in heavy rain.

		The river was well up, nothing crazy, but it was going to be a good run, that was obvious.
		Finally he decided hand rolling was a lost cause and took a 'technical' swim (aka the river dudes were bullying him, and he couldn't take their pressure).
		In truth not a bad effort, and she probably only did the river because, as Simon's mate put it, "your boat is the same size as my car".

	Dart Trip October 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		All the locals were very friendly, even if we did give one family a fright as James got stuck in the stopper at the bottom of a sticky weir that was overlooked by their living room.
		At one point the river disappeared into a narrow slot and then into a twisty rapid, this looked a lot worse than it was, but one of our group was still made to do some impromptu rolling practice.
		The river started with some fairly continuous grade 4- which (within the first 50 meters) saw Simon pinned and both James and Ollie pile onto the top of him.

	The Abbot and The Virtuous Lady
		Having followed the river downstream he eventually got to Double waters, the point where the river Tavy is joined by the river Walkham.
		Any clear minded person would have realised that to attempt to cross the angry river was pointless not to mention dangerous, the Abbot however was driven by greed and so foolishly stepped into the rushing waters.
		The Abbot knew that the only chance he had was to abandon his gemstones to the river and then try to swim to the bank.

	Upper Walkham Valley
		The upper Walkham valley is impressively obvious to all motorists who drive to Tavistock from Princetown.
		This valley is an excellent way of walking into the moor and although the described walk only goes half way, the determined walker can follow the Walkham right up to the solitude of the upper head of the river and have a thoroughly good experience.
		On a river bend you'll find the remains of a blowing house, carry on and you'll get to the head weir of the Sortridge leat.

	Buckland Monachorum Parish Council
		Bedford Bridge is our starting point and is the bridge that crosses the River Walkham about half a mile from Horrabridge on the way to Tavistock at the bottom of a long hill.
		The river has flooded on a number of occasions and has rather worn away the path in places and exposed thick tree roots so do take care.
		You can take a lower path by the river but it is not well defined and is a little difficult in places but not impossible for the adventurous.

	Grt MIS and the Walkham
		Once across the river hopefully without getting too wet the route is very easy walking over easy short cropped grass maintaining the contour on the side of the valley as it sweeps west and then a gradual turn to the south west, easy walking the whole way.
		As the Walkham swings south west there is a very well defined bronze age settlement remains visible, in fact it is a particularly well defined one with lots of outlines of huts and other foundations.
		I found a spot where the river was very shallow and there were boulders to step across and just a few inches of water to wade through.

	dartmoor wildlife report 2005
		The River Walkham and its tributaries are fastflowing and provide a major spawning ground for salmon, sea trout and aquatic invertebrates typical of this habitat.
		The whole area is important for birds including dipper and grey wagtail near the river and redstart, buzzard and wood warbler in the woodland.
		The trees are mainly pedunculate and sessile oak with occasional silver birch, rowan and hazel with alder and alder buckthorn found on the flatter slopes near the river.

		The ‘River’ Egg is a tiny violent stream that tumbles into the Walkham and was once used to provide domestic electricity and the remains of the small generating station can still be seen.
		The river is small but compensation water does provide a constant flow and temperature to the water.
		The river is small, and in places overgrown, but holds better brown trout and will reward the skilful use of a brook rod.

		About 250 yards above the bridge, on the left bank of the river, are the ruins of an old blowing-house, or place for smelting tin, and a thousand yards higher up the stream is another.
		It is a pleasant walk down the right-hand bank of the river for about half a mile, and then through a wood, to Vixen Tor (see p.93).

	Horrabridge Incised Cross (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The River Walkham flows through the centre of Horrabridge and the bridge is situated right next to the junction of the two main streets of the village.
		It is a narrow bridge with two ‘V’ shaped places built into the parapet, to allow pedestrians to stand aside for cars to pass.
		Downstream, there is a pool in the river, below a weir, where the children often swim and play during the hot summer months.

	Yelverton to Double Waters
		From time to time the river narrowed and there were large granite rocks to divert the river from its smooth path.
		There was a neat little wooden bridge crossing the Walkham at this point and after lunch we crossed over the bridge to the left bank of the Walkham.
		As the picture shows, the Tavy is the wider of the two rivers and therefore the widest river wins when it comes to names.

	Previous Hunt Reports
		Hounds found on the river bank and took their fox up the escarpment to Hunter's Oak where he turned to run the top of the woods before turning back down the bank to go to ground.
		Here hounds forced their fox across the river along the bank to the north before recrossing the stream to run towards the waterfall, but again in the open and on the dry dead grass scent failed.
		But as hounds left the shelter of the valley a few minutes behind their fox it was apparent that the wind was as strong and drying as ever and the line petered out amongst the sheep behind Archerton and a broad circular cast failed to recover it.

		With much of the national park covered in thick layers of peat, the rain is readily absorbed, and is usually distributed slowly, so that the moor is rarely dry.
		As a result, there are numerous rivers and streams.
		The best known river is clearly the River Dart, which is divided into the East Dart and West Dart, until they join at Dartmeet.

	WALKHAMPTON
		The river flowing under Huckworthy Bridge is the Walkham and it was surprisingly placid considering all the rain which was dumped on the moor the day before.
		We passed the Merrivale pub just before our lunch break down by the river Walkham and a few of the ramblers decided that the pub could provide some better quality refreshments than the river.
		Coming out of the woods, we crossed footpaths through farmers fields and, although there were no stiles on the first section of the walk, we made up for it on the return leg.

		The River Walkham is a tributary of the Tavy, and like the Tavy it is not, at present, covered by a formal access agreement.
		The popularity of this river has risen enormously following its inclusion in one of Terry Storey's guides and this has led to several confrontations between landowners and canoeists.
		It would also help me if you can get the name and address of the objector, or give them mine, and please let me know if you are confronted.

		He said what he objected to was people paddling the river in the summer when the fishing was at it's best, He said he had no objections whatsoever to people paddling it in the winter outside of the fishing season.
		Your only other clues are an island above on river left (try to get out to the left of it, on river left), and rock slabs leading into the river on the brink of the rapid, although these may be covered in high water.
		river left of the island means you wind up dropping into a narrow slot, which may have a rock inconveniently blocking the entrance.

	Devon Self-catering - Devon's River Country
		The half of the moor north of the B3212 is the highest and wildest; no villages within it, almost no cultivation.
		Very lovely, too, are the valleys of the rivers Avon, Erme, Walkham and Tavy; Tavy Cleave, on the latter, is the western moor’s most dramatic place.
		The quality of a pub can change so quickly we hesitate to recommend, but there are plenty of them; and of places to ride or pony trek.
