His dream was to make the wilderness of Dartmoor into a productive bread-basket of the South West of England. .
He believed that he could tame the wilderness, drain the acidic boggy soil, clear the granite rocks which littered the fields, and plant wheat, and grow plantations of trees to produce wood needed by the Royal Navy..
You only have to visit Dartmoor today, a glorious wild space, to see what a spectacular failure it was. .
It remains untamed, a National Park of extraordinary beauty. .
It was also his dream to build a prison and in 18AB the foundation stone of the new prison was laid. .
Two years later it was ready to receive its first inmates. .
He died in 1CD3 at the age of EF.
