I'm not certain but I think this one is Haytor. There are so many Tors, each are unique.
I took this as Ann drove me across the moors in September 2014.
I found this verse which sums up its beauty I think
Sophie Dixon – February 4th 1825
Dartmoor Verse ( an excerpt )
Ye mighty Tors, – ye regions of the cloud !
Dartmoor ! in chant of Bard too long unsung !
So lofty, so remote, so passing proud,
Ye tower on high, the scenes of song among.
None e’er hath looked upon you, as fit theme
For verse – nor e’er in kindred feeling warm,
Deemed there might mantle one inspiring beam
O’er giant hills of solitude and storm.
They say ye’re not poetic, – but to me
There’s poetry where’er the wild flowers blow –
There’s poetry where’er our eye is free
To wander heaven above, or earth below !
