The Touchstone
The Touchstone is the first standing stone to be raised on Dartmoor for several thousand years. It has been inscribed with one of John Powls' poems and erected to celebrate the millennium.
At the heart of Dartmoor there is a triangle of roads encloses Dartmoor Prison. The Touchstone stands next to the public footpath which leads to Fice’s Well. This path starts from a field gate beside a wooden signpost on the Tavistock-Two Bridges road, approximately 200 years from the junction at Rundlestone on the Two Bridges side.
