There is reference to "pitt house" in 1712 (not to be confused with the later mansion house (sx87ne/119). Some cob in the present buildings and re-used 17c timbers in outbuildings are probably from the earlier farmhouse. Present building is from roughly 1800. A re-used datestone "cp 1809" is probably of charles pinsent, who died in 1826 and owned the pitt estate (devonshire association, 1996).
