The Friends of Manning's Pit
The Friends of Manning's Pit Community Group
have led campaigns to save the fields since 2015 - they are now
owned by local Charity the Pilton Green Man CIO (Charity no
1170742 ). We now run the management and maintenance
of Manning's Pit and organise promotional and fundraising events.
These fields have been loved by
generations of Pilton, Bradiford and Barnstaple people
from the writer H H Munro (Saki) back in the 19th
Century to the local community in the present day.
