Description: Roughtor, (S. side), Camelford. Looking N. Granite hill. A 'tor'. In the foreground is an ancient stone arch. This is the second highest eminence in Cornwall and is 1312 feet above sea level. Even at this distance, the horizontal weathering of the granite (imparting a bedded aspect) is well seen by aid of a hand lens. On the left side of the hill the structure is parallel to the hill slope, a rather unusual phenomenon.
