THE INQUEST into the death of Torridge teenager, Charlotte Shaw, who died while training for the Ten Tors, will resume on Monday, September 13.

The 14-year-old from Frithelstock Stone between Bideford and Torrington drowned in a rain-swollen stream while she was preparing for the two-day trek across Dartmoor in March, 2007.

The inquest was adjourned in December after coroner Elizabeth Earland referred the case back to the Crown Prosecution Service because of concerns about the evidence she heard from fellow classmates.

The Crown Prosecution Service confirmed in April that no further action would be taken.

The jury inquest is scheduled to last until Monday, October 11, at County Hall in Exeter, although the coroner will not be sitting every day.

In June, lawyers acting for Charlotte's mother, Jennifer Wilkin-Shaw, filed a High Court claim for negligence against her daughter's school, Kingsley School which was then called Edgehill College, and a teacher who led the overnight training expedition.
