About

Bere Alston, Buckland Monachorum, and Yelverton form a rural area on the western edge of Dartmoor. The landscape is defined by the River Tavy and the Tavy Valley, with wooded slopes and open moorland. Settlements are small, centred around historic church parishes and former mining villages. The area is crossed by the A386 road, connecting it to Tavistock and Plymouth.
