Abstract
► 10Be dating of Dartmoor tors provides new constraints on UK upland landscape evolution. ► Exposure age distribution from 32 tors exhibits a strong peak in the mid-Devensian. ► 36-50 ka modal age cluster favours a periglacial regolith stripping event. ► Other ages indicate an unsteady and non-uniform tor emergence pattern. ► Undetectable impact of Dartmoor ice cap on exposure ages suggests brief glacier life span.
