Get directions

Cocks Hill is a flat, characterless hill near Langstone Moor, the River Walkham and the Lych Way. It's quite boggy, especially in summer, and has few paths. The best approach is from the Lych Way near White Barrow. It's within the Merrivale Firing Range, so visitors should follow notices and respect the area.

Go deeper with Dartefacts

Dartefacts is a database of Dartmoor sites with far more close-up detail than we can show here, and it is the best place to go deeper. Dartefacts is free to use, and nobody has to pay to look things up. If you want more, a yearly subscription adds 10-figure grid references, map zoom down to 1:25,000 and lists to tick off the places you have visited, and it helps keep the site going. We would encourage you to subscribe.
