Summary
Farmstead dates to at least the early 19th century, based on cartographic evidence. The 1840s Tithe Map shows two adjoining dwellings and some auxiliary structures. Recorded in the Dartmoor Historic farmstead survey (visited in 1995), the buildings shown on the 19th century historic map appear to have been retained.
