High on Bodmin Moor stands one of the strangest ‘tors’, or granite hilltops, in all England. Centuries of wind and rain, snow and frost, have eaten into the weakest points of the stone, carving an extraordinary shape which is said to resemble a cheesepress, hence its name. The views from the hill are remarkable – on a clear day you can see from the blue waters of St Austell Bay, across the moor, and up to Brown Willy – the highest summit in Cornwall. A network of paths around the Cheesewring makes the district a popular destination for ramblers and riders.
