Hatherley

Devon

Hatherley is a Grade II* listed building situated in the heart of Dartmoor's landscape. The house appears to have medieval roots, with the kind of substantial construction that speaks to long occupation and agricultural purpose on the moor. Like many Dartmoor farmhouses, it has been adapted and altered over the centuries, bearing the marks of its own practical history.

Today it stands as a quiet landmark in the moorland, representative of the scattered pattern of settlement that has shaped Dartmoor for hundreds of years. Visitors walking the moor in this area will find it a tangible connection to the lives lived here, and a reminder of how people have made their living from these upland slopes.
