“Deserted farmstead consisting of a longhouse and several associated buildings and enclosures located to the south-west of the reservoir, within an area of medieval fields.”

Here also starts (or ends) the Venford Reave. The ruins of this medieval farmstead are spread either side of the Venford Reservoir enclosure fence, but stiles enable access. Pictured is the longhouse which is inside the fence.

This medieval farmstead is in such good condition today because it was cleared over many years by Paul Rendell and other volunteers.
