There is a farm in Aveton Gifford called Bennick, near Harraton. There is
a Langdon Cross but I don't know of a Langland. Unfortunately I have
loaned my largest scale map to my son, and the Devon GenUKI site appears
to be down at the moment, but a close look at the Aveton Gifford pages
there might well be useful. It does have a good place index.
