Grid ref: SX 8104 8079

High on Dartmoor stands a quiet tribute to Woodland Trust founder Kenneth Watkins, whose passion for conservation shaped how we protect our landscape today. The memorial marks the commitment of one man to preserving the natural heritage that defines this corner of Devon.

It's a place for reflection, surrounded by the open moorland and scattered trees that Watkins fought to safeguard. Visitors who make the journey across Dartmoor to find it discover not just a stone marking, but a connection to the conservation movement that continues to shape how we care for wild spaces.
