Halwill Junction Nature Reserve

Owned and managed by Devon Wildlife Trust, Halwill Junction Nature Reserve is a disused railway line with a variety of habitats. It was purchased by DWT from British Rail in 1990. Recently the old railway track has been converted into a surfaced cycle path connecting Halwill Junction to Cookworthy Forest.
