Granite tors on Stowe's Hill, Bodmin Moor, at sunset.


These granite rock formations, the result of natural erosion, are found on the southern edge of Bodmin Moor, Cornwall, near Minions . Nearby is The Cheesewring, huge weathered slabs of granite which give the appearance of an old cheese press, hence the name. Also nearby are are the Hurlers, three ancient stone circles dating from 2500 to 1800 BC.
