Notes: Fixed by GPS to  404 m

Reference: It is actually named Lower Top Tor according to the Tors of Dartmoor website, as it is not “shapely” and cannot, we think, be Eric Hemery’s ‘Bovey Rock’. The author, in his 1983 publication, mentions an outcrop known as such, but tracing his footsteps is difficult due to a lack of NGRs.

Notes: Known for the location of a photo of Peter Cushing in his 1968 role as Sherlock Holmes!
