Full description

Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.

Dwelling depicted on the Tithe Map at the farm is clearly a previous farmhouse, as it is an entirely different shape.


Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.

The late 19th century historic map shows the large square farmhouse, much as it is in modern times.


Dartmoor National Park Authority, 2013, Ilsington Conservation Area Appraisal (draft), 23, figure 14 (Report - Assessment). SDV357558.

Town Barton – Unlisted
The balanced 19th century farmhouse has PVCu windows and concrete roof tiles that seriously dilute its historic appearance; but it is prominently located, closing views from the east.


Ordnance Survey, 2016, MasterMap (Cartographic). SDV359352.

Town Barton is depicted on the modern mapping; the old farmhouse appears unchanged in layout since the late 19th century historic map depiction.
