Cut Hill is a remote high point in North Dartmoor, offering some of the best panoramic views on the moor. It is surrounded by wet, tussocky ground and peat hags, with a prehistoric stone row dating to 3,500 BC discovered nearby. The hill is part of a military training area and is a long walk from Postbridge, typically taking an hour and a half. It is known locally as the 'Mountain of Cut' and rises to 603 metres.

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.
