Buckland in the Moor, Devon

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A very attractive little Dartmoor village. The parish church at Buckland is famous for its unusual clock face. The clock does not have numbers to indicate the hours, but letters which spell out the words 'My Dear Mother'. Above the village on Buckland Beacon are the Ten Commandment Stones, two large tablets inscribed with the words of the Ten Commandments, the work of a Victorian vicar.
