Moorland
A lonely moorland road across the heart of Dartmoor past the prison at Princetown.
The B3212 crosses the wild heart of Dartmoor between Moretonhampstead and Yelverton, over open moor past Princetown. It is narrow with cattle grids and free-roaming ponies and sheep; drive slowly, especially at dusk and in mist.
