Burrator in the drought (Q5)

It has been too hot to walk on the moors lately, but I had heard reports of how much of the sunken valley was exposed at Burrator so we decided to investigate.  The reservoir is at 40% capacity and at the far end from the dam it was looking empty.  We were able to walk along the shore line much more than usual.
