The NGR for this fabulous peat pass is taken from the Dartmoor 365 book and is directed to the north end where there is a Frank Phillpotts’ peat pass marker. It is Dartmoor’s longest peat pass and is quite extraordinary. This photo was taken near the top of Black Ridge and you can clearly see the cut into the peat. This would’ve enabled better ground for hunting and cattlemen in this otherwise boggy tract of moorland, known as the fen.
