Tors of Dartmoor

Tors of Dartmoor is a freely searchable online database celebrating the numerous tors and significant rock outcrops of Dartmoor National Park. It covers well-known tors that appear on Ordnance Survey maps as well as lesser-known outcrops that are little remarked upon in the literature and absent from modern maps.

The database currently lists 930 locations and more than 3,600 photographs, making it one of the most comprehensive collections of Dartmoor tor records available. Entries can be searched by civil parish, Ordnance Survey grid square, tor name or classification, and the database includes tors on public land as well as those on private ground.

The project incorporates the work of Tim Jenkinson, who spent a decade documenting outcrops on East Dartmoor. A companion book, East Dartmoor's Lesser-Known Tors and Rocks by Max Piper, was published in October 2022 by The Dartmoor Company and runs to over 350 pages with more than 240 photographs.
