Scarey Tor is a modest, broken granite tor above the East Okement River, near Cullever Steps and beneath Belstone Common. It has an abandoned millstone on its south side and a weathered rock ridge on the north slope. The views from here are surprisingly fine, looking over the East Okement valley and towards Belstone Common and the surrounding tors.
