Guidebook Updates
​
We frequently check the Trail for any changes or issues. There are a few minor changes that have happened on the Trail's route since publication of the book. If you spot any changes please do let us know.
​
​All the page numbers refer to the Second Edition of the Trail Guidebbok – that's the one with the signpost design on the cover.
Page 2, paragraph 6: In the web address for the .gpx files, all three of the I characters are lower case letter Ls, not ones.
​
Page 11, paragraphs 2: ​The South West Coast Path's route has been changed just west of Porlock Weir and this has meant that a few fingerposts have had their text changed. The path between the Ship Inn and the Porlock Weir Hotel is now just signed to Culbone Church and not as the Coast Path, which now continues along the front of the hotel and re-joins your route along the Trail about a mile further west.
Page 18, paragraph 3: This should now read:
Turn left at the road and walk through the hamlet. Just before the road starts to climb, turn right down the track in front of Morefields House signed Wootton Knowle and Holt.
Page 18, Paragraph 4: This should now read:
Once beyond the buildings, keep ahead and then fork left on the Permitted Footpath Avoiding Fields to Holt. After about 200 yards this path leads to a narrow stream bridge, after which keep ahead signed to Tivington.
Page 18, Paragraph 6: This should now read:
After you cross the small footbridge keep straight ahead, heading for the small woodland – you may wish to turn right and skirt around the edge of the field if it has been planted. On reaching the plantation, turn right through two gates up the side of the field keeping the plantation on your left, signed with yellow arrows.
Page 25, paragraph 2: The signpost pointing to Tivington has been replaced by a signpost pointing to Blackford.

Page 34, paragraph 4: The "narrow unsigned path" is now signed to Porlock
