Dartmoor covers 365 square miles,
one for every day in the year.
So we play Dartmoor 3-6-5, a game
tracking down features of interest,
one target in each square mile:
evidence of bygone industry,
strip farming, stone walling,
circles, rows and standing
stones of sacred import,
and graves, yes, Grim’s Grave,
Jay’s Grave and Stephen’s Grave,
Childe’s Tomb and The Coffin Stone,
yes, and Hangman’s Pit, Gibbet Hill,
Boundary Crosses, Bloody Pool,
Target Railway, Shell Top,
New Waste, Bleak House,
Look And Weep.
Our company of seekers
have dedicated books and maps,
reference sites and a Facebook Group
where we ask each other questions:
Are they practising live firing today?
What were these ruined buildings?
Who used to occupy them?
Where exactly is the target?
How do we get from A to B?
