Lamerton is a small rural village and civil parish in West Devon, in the county of Devon, England. It sits a few miles north of Tavistock and within easy reach of Dartmoor and Plymouth, set among rolling farmland and wooded valleys that are typical of this part of the county.
Historically an agricultural community with roots stretching back centuries, the village retains a quiet, close‑knit character where local life centres on the church, village hall and a handful of small businesses; many residents also commute to nearby towns for work. Lamerton benefits from good access to outdoor recreation and heritage trails on Dartmoor, and its calendar of parish events and community activities reflects the strong local identity of rural Devon.
