Sourton Tors Trig Pillar sits on the NNW edge of Dartmoor at an elevation of 1,431 Ft above sea level and ranks 12th highest of Dartmoor's trigs.. Easily accessible and outside of the military ranges. Commanding views to the North and West and on a clear day Bodmin Moor in Cornwall can be easily seen. An item of interest is the old Sourton Tors Ice factory which can be clearly seen as a number of rectangular depressions on the Northern slopes of the tor.
