Great Trowlesworthy TorGreat Trowlsworthy Tor, East Tor, Eastorre, Estorre, Trowlesworthy Tors ![]() It is called "Great" due to its higher altitude to "Little", but by no means is it grander. Still, it is still a nice one to visit, with one main outcrop and a few other smaller piles, also giving a good view of the Whitehill Yeo China Clay Works. ![]() Hemery describes it nicely: "Its massive proportions are awesome on near approach - especially from the east where it resembles a giant rampart. Views from the summit are very fine: especially striking is the contrast between the remote upper Plym country (north-east) and the English Channel and Cornish hills (south-west)." ![]() ![]()
