One of the three "venue" pubs available to those of us who live here (South Zeal ) and / or love the Dartmoor Folk Festival , namely the Seven Stars in nearby South Tawton , is to re-open in the near future ( a matter of weeks , I am told ).Its physical location, right opposite South Tawton Church Hall, makes it very handy for audiences of the folk performers who appear thereat ,although ,sadly,it is unlikely to be ready for the up coming visit of John Dipper and Dave Malkin.The recent visit of James Fagan and the OTHER James was ,sadly, publess, but better luck next time , chaps !
