Rabbit Warren 410m west and 310m north west of Beardown Farm is a scheduled ancient monument located in Devon, England. The site represents a post-medieval commercial enterprise dating from the early modern period, when rabbit warrens were established as managed hunting reserves and sources of meat and fur for landowners and their tenants. The warren would have comprised carefully maintained burrows and associated features designed to encourage and sustain a productive rabbit population. Such warrens were characteristic of the Tudor and Stuart periods across southern England, though many continued in operation into later centuries.
