"The ancient manor of Dotton predates the Domesday Book of 1086, by which time a mill was already operating on the site. It was recognised as a civil parish in 1868, but was incorporated into Colaton Raleigh in 1894. The manor passed through the hands of Baldwin, Sheriff of Devon, the Cistercian monks from Dunkeswell Abbey, the Duke family of Otterton and the Rolle family, before becoming part of Clinton Devon Estates." [From Devon24]
