Yes Tor is the second highest point on Dartmoor, Devon, South West England, at 619 m (2,031 ft) above sea level. Together with nearby High Willhays they are the only two peaks above 2,000 feet south of the English Peak District National Park.
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.[2]
Yes Tor was also the original inspiration for the name of the Yes album Tormato and a picture of the Tor features on the album cover.
