The farm is loosely based on Nun’s Cross Farm which is a well known landmark on the ‘high Moor’ The house was built-in 1870 by John Hooper. Mr & Mrs Hooper lived well into their 90’s and after that the house itself fell into disrepair. These days, Nun’s Cross Farm is used as a bunkhouse and base for school parties, Duke of Edinburgh Award, Ten Tors etc.
The cross close by to the farm is often referred to as ‘Nun’s Cross’ but it’s real name is actually Siward’s Cross, and is documented as far back as 1240. It lies on the Abbot’s Way which is the route across Dartmoor that the monks of Buckfastleigh followed to take them to Tavistock Abbey.

Full description
This is my portrayal of a typical Farm on Dartmoor which was made by firstly laying down local wool from Dartmoor, wet felting the background and then adding the details with needle felting. I have then machine embroidered and hand embroidered further details, attached it to a black painted hessian background and framed the artwork in a wooden unglazed 62cm x 56cm frame which is painted in black and slightly distressed to show the gold layer below.
Designed by Caroline Stoyle in Devon
