West Mill Tor 542.7m P20.3 (1780ft) (DoBIH Hill ID: 19861) [JNSA s2045] Dartmoor National Park Definitive List summit.

This stone circle from the Bronze Age, thousands of years before the beginning of the Christian era, is not as large and nowhere near as famous as the legendary "Stonehenge" (which is, after all, a UNESCO World Heritage Site; if you're interested, see => https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/960007 ), but this one can be visited without the tourist crowds that are typical there, and it also has a much more interesting-sounding name...

West Mill Tor is an easy climb from the base of Yes Tor and offers fantastic views in all directions. A sizeable outcrop with various routes to climb to get to the top, varying from safe and simple to steep and trechuous. There is a small stream to cross at the base between Yes Tor and the ground can be waterlogged so will require abit of dry hopping or good footwear.

On the 1st of May every year the local morris dancers come to dance the summer in at dawn at this spot

Make sure to check out the military times. As drills are taken out here on certain days.

If you are hiking to Yes Tor, don't pass by West Mill Tor without a visit. It almost looks like the ruins of a castle and is very recognisable. The views from up here take you all the way across to Exmoor National Park in the north or south west to Yes Tor. Simply stunning.

Legend tells of a couple out walking on the moor who encountered the local Pixies (Piskies) who brought down a mist to prevent them from finding their way. After much walking around in circles, the couple found a well and partook of the waters. This instantly broke the Piskies' spell, and they could make their way down to Okehampton. In gratitude, the couple erected a cross by the well, so that anyone could find it, take the water and dispel the Piskies' spells. The well itself is now covered in granite slabs, but the cross is still there.
