The Dartington Hall Trust is a charitable company based on a 1,000-acre estate near Totnes in South Devon.
The estate was founded in the 1920s as an experiment in rural reconstruction combining farming, forestry and new industries with educational innovation and the promotion of the arts and crafts.
The derelict medieval courtyard was restored and a wonderful garden created in its grounds. Many new buildings were erected, the finest Modernist example of which now houses the Trust's archive and art collection.
The aims of the Trust are realised through several strands of activity encompassing the arts and education, ecology, social justice and commercial enterprise. more
