About Burrator

Learn more about the host city, Burrator.

Burrator is a locality in the civil parish of Sheepstor in Devon, England. The name was originally given to a granite tor, and was subsequently also used for a nearby farm, wood and waterfall. In the 1890s the Burrator Reservoir was built to supply drinking water to Plymouth and surrounding areas. The two dams which form the southern end of the reservoir stand either side of the tor itself. The reservoir straddles the three parishes of Meavy, Sheepstor, and Walkhampton. These three parishes now share a grouped parish council, called Burrator Parish Council.
