Summary
Farmstead dates to at least the 17th century, based on the age of the farmhouse. The 1840s Tithe Map and the late 19th century historic map show a different configuration of farm buildings to the surviving layout, which are shown on the early 20th century historic map. Recorded in the Dartmoor Historic farmstead survey (visited in 2004).
