Cottages and outbuildings referred to as Little Throwley Town in the 1780s and recorded on the 1840 Tithe Map. They were demolished in the 1970s. The lintel over the doorway of the right hand doorway bore the inscription 'W 1702 M' and is shown on a photograph of the cottages. WM is thought to be William Moor, died 1706 and the date to refer to a rebuilding. The lintel is now in the garden wall of 'Whytbank' in South Tawton. The Tithe Map also records cottages, workshops and the site of the original Royal Oak Inn to the south and south-west of Little Throwley Town which were demolished in the second half of the 19th century, perhaps circa 1860.
