About

Yarty ward covers a rural expanse in the eastern part of East Devon, characterised by rolling farmland, wooded valleys, and scattered villages. The area is defined by the course of the River Yarty, a tributary of the Axe, which flows through its parishes. Settlements like Membury, Dalwood, and Stockland are central to the ward, functioning as hubs for the surrounding agricultural community.

The landscape is predominantly agricultural, with fields used for both livestock and crops. A notable local tradition is the annual Wassail held in the orchards of Dalwood, celebrating the area's historic cider production. The ward contains several protected wildlife sites within its river valleys and ancient woodland, contributing to its quiet, pastoral character.
