Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Results of a desk-based assessment, historic building recording and archaeological monitoring carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at Higher Velly Farm, Hartland, Torridge, Devon. The work was commissioned by Lyndon Piper of Piper Architecture (the Agent) in order to establish the historic background, building phasing and nature of archaeological remains that may be affected by the conversion of the farm buildings and associated development works. Whilst Higher Velly Farm is not a listed building, the likely late medieval origin of the complex makes it of local significance, particularly with the survival of early fabrics within buildings B1 and B2. The primary function of building B1 was as a detached kitchen block, probably of late medieval date. This suggests that a reasonably high status house of this date was present nearby, the location of which is unknown. The majority of the surviving structures, however, are representative of a 19th/early 20th century rationalisation of the earlier building group. The development of the complex was partly confirmed by the archaeological features identified during groundworks, though the later additions are also likely to have caused the destruction of much of the earlier evidence, most notably of the possible oven within the east gable stack of B1. No evidence was found in the surviving building fabric or archaeological monitoring that could confirm the existence of 'the remains of the chapel' as stated on the Ordnance Survey maps and the Devon County Historic Environment Record.
