Bell Tor sits below Chinkwell Tor and above Bonehill Rocks, offering a dramatic view when approached from the south. It is a massive pile of granite with a chasm at the top where a boulder is trapped between two walls. The granite here is coarse-grained, leading to large, rounded boulders stacked on top of each other. A rock basin on the summit can catch water after rain, creating a ripple effect in the breeze.
