On the Northern edge of Dartmoor, just East of the city of Melchester rests the frankly disappointing hillock of Dalek Tor.For centuries, the ancient Britons wrote no myths and legends about this hillock- Even the name was just a leftover when another Tor was renamed.
However, the Sci-Fi writer Mitchell Dougherty remembered the shape of the old tor, and when the TV series Doctor Who came up with a new Monster Of The Week, he suggested Dalek. (Clearly influenced by the domed / conical shape.)
The right hand outcrop has been colloquially renamed Davros Tor, although the OS map still keeps the old name of Epididymis Tor.
