Ashburton

A heritage-dense compact town on the south-eastern edge of Dartmoor in Devon, Ashburton has a walkable centre thick with listed buildings, cafés, and restaurants. Once a stannary town — a centre for tin-mining administration — it remains the largest town within the national park, with the open moorland of Dartmoor on its doorstep.
