INTRODUCTION 1.1 Geography and History of the Parish The historical Parish of Knowstone in North Devon lies midway between the market towns of Tiverton and South Molton, just off the southern borders of Exmoor. In 1086 Knowstone was written as Chenutdestana and in 1220 it became Cnouston, changing variously to become Knowstone in 1489. This agricultural Parish had a population of 817 in 1857 and today the figure is 217. The Parish comprises of 3 main settlements: Knowstone ‘Town’ where the Parish Church of St Peters is located, East Knowstone, and Roachill. There are also a number of outlying houses and farms within its total area of about 2020 hectares. Knowstone is recorded on the early survey maps of 1795/6 compiled by Captain William Mudge and Isaac Dalby. There is a copy of the Tithe Map of 1841 in the Parish Hall. The English Civil War affected many a household in the area, and of historical record in this Parish were the Shapcotts of Shapcott Barton.

If citing, you are advised to consult the published version for pagination, volume/issue and date of publication Medieval Archaeology, 50, 2006 Beyond Villages and Open Fields: The Origins and Development of a Historic Landscape Characterised by Dispersed Settlement in South-West England By S. J. RIPPON, R. M. FYFE and A. G. BROWN POLLEN EVIDENCE has, to date, made little contribution to our understanding of the origins and development of the medieval landscape. Compared to the prehistoric period, relatively few long palaeoenvironmental sequences provide a continuous record for the past two millennia, and those that have been analysed are mostly located in upland locations that lay beyond areas settled during this period. The nine sequences reported here from central Devon and the edges of Exmoor start to redress that imbalance. They suggest substantial clearance of woodland in lowland areas and the upland fringe by the Late Iron Age, and that the incorporation of this region into the Roman world had little impact on patterns of landscape exploitation. In a region that lay beyond the main area of Romanisation, it is not surprising that the 5th century saw little discernible change in management of the landscape.
