Rugglestone Rock is a granite outcrop in High Dartmoor, better approached from Venton. It features a large loggable stone, once said to require a church key to move. The area around it is boggy and thick with vegetation, making access challenging but the site is public. A smaller logging stone lies nearby, and the rock is about 22 feet long and 115 tons in weight.
