About

Dulverton & Exmoor ward encompasses a significant portion of the western Exmoor National Park. The area is characterised by high moorland, deep wooded river valleys, and scattered agricultural settlements. The town of Dulverton itself acts as a southern gateway to the moor, situated where the River Barle and River Exe meet. The landscape is largely rural, with land use dominated by sheep farming and forestry.

The ward includes the ancient hunting forest of Exmoor and notable landmarks like the Tarr Steps, a prehistoric clapper bridge across the River Barle. The terrain supports red deer and Exmoor ponies, native breeds that roam the open heathland. The area's economy is closely tied to tourism, agriculture, and the management of the national park's natural resources.
