a database of both lesser & well-known rocks and outcrops
Brake Tor
![]() This small but quite impressive tor extends downhill above the private driveway to Brake not far from the village centre of Lustleigh. ![]() It consists of several moss and vegetation-covered huge boulders of which some can be seen from the wayside as it passes beneath the main bulk. ![]() The tor also overlooks a fine example of a slotted gatepost at SX 78046 81327 that shows four deeply cut slots into the worked granite post that once supported one side of a gate. These are seen all over the moor but they are particularly common in and around Lustleigh. ![]()
