Barn near Inglettes Farmhouse

Grid ref: SX 6958 6896

On walking routes: Two Moors Way

This stone barn, listed at grade II* by Historic England, began life as a longhouse, a building type common across medieval and early modern Dartmoor where livestock and human inhabitants shared a single structure under one roof. The building now stands as a barn approximately 40 metres west of Inglettes Farmhouse, a working part of the Dartmoor landscape that speaks to centuries of upland farming life.

The survival of this structure, with its listing status reflecting its historic significance, offers insight into how Dartmoor communities lived and worked. Visitors can view the exterior in its rural setting, where the building's construction and form tell the story of adaptation to the moor's demanding climate and the practical needs of those who farmed here.
