EXPLORING AROUND BURRATOR
by Paul Rendell.
This is a book about the farms around Burrator Reservoir on Dartmoor. It is the story of the buildings and the people who once lived in the area. Some of the farms had been there for over 700 years. One by one they became derelict for a number of reasons and the major cause came in the 1890’s when a new reservoir was built. This is the people’s story.
It is not just the farms that are looked at in this book but the other buildings and items like potato caves. There are two walks which will help you to explore this beautiful part of Dartmoor.
