Bodmin Moor is a granite moorland in northeastern Cornwall, United Kingdom. It is 208 square kilometres (80 sq mi) in size, and originally dates from the Carboniferous period of geological history.
Bodmin Moor is one of five granite plutons (underground masses of igneous rock) in Cornwall.
The name 'Bodmin Moor' is fairly recent, invented in 1813. It was formerly known as Fowey Moor after the River Fowey which rises within it. Since the mid 18th century Bodmin Moor has been crossed by the trunk road now known as the A30.
