This is an exceedingly fine tor comprising many outcrops. Interspersed by delightful trees, there is a huge clitter below the tor which the former Princetown Railway looped through. A small quarry can be found on the southern side of the tor, but fortunately for King’s Tor it never expanded into the metropolis of Swell Tor.
