Arch Tor sits above the ruins of the Powder Mills, accessible via the Lych Way. It has a carved 'PC' inscription on its western face and a collection of wide, shallow rock basins on the summit. The views from here are expansive, taking in nearby tors and the distant Ryders Hill on clear days. It's a solitary spot, best approached on foot from the B3212 road.
