Chagford

About

Chagford ward encompasses a rural expanse of West Devon on the northeastern fringes of Dartmoor. The landscape is defined by open moorland, wooded river valleys, and scattered farmsteads. The historic stannary town of Chagford itself serves as a central hub, with its stone-built market square and narrow streets. Agriculture remains a visible part of the local character, shaping the surrounding patchwork of fields and hedgerows.

The area is bisected by the upper reaches of the River Teign, which flows through steep, wooded gorges. A notable network of public footpaths and bridleways connects the settlements to the high moor, including routes toward the granite outcrops of Kes Tor and Meldon Hill. The local economy traditionally balances farming with tourism, drawn by the direct access to Dartmoor's open spaces.
