Hunters’ Stone, The (225 m)

This solitary boulder has various names inscribed onto it, sat beside the access road for Avon Dam and the Filtration Works. It commemorates numerous members of the South Devon Hunt and has existed since the late 1800s, perhaps longer than that. You are directed to the Tors of Dartmoor website, and the article below, for further information.
