About

Buckland Monachorum ward covers a rural expanse in the western part of West Devon. The landscape is defined by the upper reaches of the River Tavy, with its valley cutting through wooded and agricultural land. The area includes the village of Yelverton, which serves as a local hub, and stretches to encompass outlying hamlets and farmland. This is a sparsely populated ward with a mix of residential and working countryside.

The ward contains a significant portion of Dartmoor National Park, with rugged moorland extending to the south and east of the settlements. A notable local landmark is the historic Buckland Abbey, a former Cistercian monastery with extensive grounds. The area's character is strongly tied to this blend of managed farmland, river valleys, and open moorland, offering a contrast between cultivated and wild landscapes.
