Helman Tor

At over 700 acres, this is our largest reserve; a complex mosaic of habitats, including heathland, mire, scrubland, bog, ancient woodland, wet woodland, and acid grassland.

The tor itself boasts commanding views of the surrounding countryside – on a clear day, both north and south coasts are visible from its granite bouldered summit. The reserve has Scheduled Ancient Monument designation due to archaeological features, including a Neolithic tor enclosure and traces of a Bronze Age field system.
