Location: Off the A377 at Chapelton Barton, 5m SE Barnstaple view map
Area: Devon & Cornwall
Meeting(s): Torrington Farmers - Saturday, 16 June 2012
Course Summary: Sharp course mostly on side of hill; first four fences close together on valley floor; 3rd is appreciably higher on landing side; stiff uphill climb after ditch to 5(11/17)th; long downhill run through finish and back to start takes its toll when ground is fast. Single entrance/exit from narrow lane; most cars parked on inside of course. Viewing adequate from central hill, but necessary to move from one side to the other to see all action; panoramic view of last and run-in. Stages the season's finale and has a party atmosphere.
Top Riders: M. Heard 4, O. Greenall 3, Mrs L. Jones 2, (twenty-one riders) 1
