About

Bridestowe ward is located in the northern part of West Devon, bordering Dartmoor National Park. The area is primarily rural, characterised by farmland, wooded valleys, and the upper reaches of the River Lyd. Settlements are small and dispersed, with the largest being the village of Bridestowe itself. The local economy has historical ties to agriculture and forestry, with a landscape shaped by these traditional industries.

The ward's geography is defined by the western edges of Dartmoor, with granite tors visible on the higher ground. A notable feature is the presence of the historic Sourton Tors and the nearby section of the A30, a major route crossing the moor. The area includes parts of the Dartmoor Way walking route, connecting it to the wider moorland landscape. Community life centres on the villages and surrounding hamlets within this sparsely populated region.
