Welcome to the Dartmoor Society

The Dartmoor Society is an independent, lively group dedicated to sharing well-researched information and promoting the well-being of Dartmoor and its communities.

Founded in 1998, it has been a Registered Charity (No. 1111066), with broadly educational aims, since 2005. It offers its members a substantial Newsletter (three times a year), plus a wide range of interesting visits, social events and opportunities to engage with up-to-date expert opinion.

The Dartmoor Society was established:

to be an independent voice and a forum for debate for those who find Dartmoor a source of livelihood or inspiration
to encourage environmentally and socially beneficial use of pasture, woodland, soil, stone, minerals, water, wind and sun
to safeguard the essential qualities of Dartmoor, such as locality and community, ruggedness, culture & tradition, significant buildings of all ages, and distinctive creatures and plants
to foster research
to stimulate creative response by artists and writers
to share knowledge through talks, walks and other means
