Yes Tor Yes Tor Yes Tor is the second highest point on Dartmoor, Devon, South West England, at above sea level. It is one of only three wholly English peaks south of the Peak District National Park—the others being nearby High Willhays and Hampster Tor—that are above . It lies within a British Army firing range and safe access is only possible on days or nights when firing is not taking place. See the current Dartmoor Firing Notice. Yes Tor is lower than the nearby High Willhays. A notable mine is located in the area. In his memoir "Father and Son" (1907),
High Willhays England south of Ingleborough in the Yorkshire Dales, but since then surveys have shown that Kinder Scout is also higher (albeit less prominent). The geology of High Willhays, like most of Dartmoor, consists of granite intruded about 280 million years ago. However High Willhays is in an area of the northern plateau of the moor where the exposed rock has noticeably fewer of the large feldspar megacrysts that are typical of most of Dartmoor's tors. Each of the outcrops displays lamellar bedding. High Willhays is within one of Dartmoor's Danger Zones, areas used periodically by the British Army for exercises.
