Sticklepath and Okehampton Conservation Group
Sticklepath and Okehampton Conservation group

Working in the North Dartmoor Area, work undertaken by the group includes giving a new coat of whitewash to the White Rock in Sticklepath which commemorates the visit of the preacher, John Wesley in the eighteenth century. This was traditionally done on an April Sunday and was originally carried out by local Wesleyans but in the 1950's the task was taken on by members of the Men's Club and subsequently by menbers of STOC.

STOC have also been involved in the Skaigh Bridge scheme, which replaced the 10m long footbridge in Belstone Cleave, Dartmoor,. This is a crucial part of local and long distance walking trails in the area.
