Tip by

18.5 km

Kitty Jay is said to have been a servant girl at one of the nearby farms. Her lover betrayed her, distancing himself from her when they found out that she was pregnant, rather than taking responsibility and marrying Kitty. In despair, she hanged herself in a barn. In those bygone days suicide victims weren't buried in the churchyard, instead they were buried at the edge of the parish.

So here lies Kitty Jay, and you'll notice that there are normally fresh flowers and often gifts left on her grave. No one knows who replaces the flowers so regularly.

Pil Tor

Highlight • Viewpoint

Pil Tor is an impressive rock formation that affords terrific views over the rugged Dartmoor landscape, especially over Haytor, Saddle Tor and Widecombe in the Moor. It's relatively challenging and therefore great fun to scramble upon.
