Little Kneeset

Grid ref: SX 5855 8418

Main image: Photo: Guy Wareham, Wikimedia Commons

Little Kneeset is a remote hill bounded by rivers and marked by some interesting granite outcrops with horizontal jointing. The northernmost outcrop offers a view north towards Great Kneeset, while the southernmost outcrop is a modest granite overhang surrounded by reeds. The summit is modest, marked only by a small cairn, but the views from the rocky outcrops are rewarding. The area is within the Okehampton firing range, so check for warnings before visiting.

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.
