About

South Brent ward encompasses the large village of South Brent along with surrounding hamlets and farmland on the southern edge of Dartmoor. The landscape is defined by the River Avon and the steep, wooded slopes of the Avon Valley. The area is crossed by both the A38 Devon Expressway and the heritage railway line, reflecting its historical role as a transport route between the moor and the coast.

The village centre has a mix of local shops and services clustered around its historic church. A notable local feature is the annual Tar Barrel Rolling event, a centuries-old tradition held each November. The ward's economy includes agriculture, tourism, and commuting, with significant areas of the surrounding countryside designated as part of the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
