Challacombe Pano

Late autumn above Challacombe and deep in the shadows a light frost sits whilst the morning light melts away the rest. Challacombe is a small village on the edge of the Exmoor National Park, in Devon, England. The name 'Challacombe' literally means 'cold valley'. The village has a small general shop/Post Office and a single pub, the Black Venus and believed to be the only inn in England bearing this name, The Black Venus Inn and is an old stone-built pub, a historic 16th century building with low ceiling and original beams. The whole village is set upon one road and is close to Simonsbath.
