Hiking
Britain’s only remaining traditional oak bark tannery, this impressive building sits on a Roman site and has been in use as a tannery ever since. Here, the hides are soaked for a year in huge pits before being sold to create high quality leather products. Out of the way in this East Devon village, without knowing the tannery was here, you could easily walk right past this historic building and business.
