‘Exploring Around Burrator – A Dartmoor Reservoir‘ (2023) by Paul Rendell explains that: “The earliest known reference to this farm seems to be in 1281 when it was called ‘Middelesworthi’… By 1919 Middleworth was abandoned. All that remains today are the ruins of the farmhouse and the large granite barn with the date stone on.” The building of Burrator Reservoir disturbed a lot of farms in the area which led to some of them eventually becoming abandoned.
