Description
This is a row of pig-houses, likely built in the early 19th century. They feature granite rubble walls and have a single-pitched corrugated iron roof. There are four separate houses in the row, each with its own access, and they are all single storey. The small doorways are regularly placed along the front. These pig-houses are part of an important group of farm buildings and early houses located in a small moorland settlement on the edge of Dartmoor.
