A beautiful (and peaceful) little green lane on a farm near Chagford, east Dartmoor in the @dnparchaeology area. #HFBG2017

We visited two different farms near eastern Dartmoor with cider presses. Here's the other, though it's not seen any action in a while !

It's not just barns that catch our eye. This fantastic little 'ash house' for storing the cinders from the fire, impressed us all. #HFBG2017

Just a selection of some of the wonderful #farm buildings we were kindly given access to on the edge of Dartmoor at the #HFBG2017 conference

A great book, available on Amazon for <£5 is this, by Jeremy Lake, one of our speakers at the #HFBG2016 conference.

This is another of the barns that we'll be visiting at the #HFBG2016 conference. @WineHeritage will kindly host us.

Previous HFBG conferences have taken in #FarmBuildings like this. Even a micro brewery featured. #HFBG2016 #heritage
