The leat shown in Image finds its way beneath a wall and onto Hore Hill, which is how http://www.dartmoor-npa.gov.uk/chagford-caa.pdf describes Chagford Open Field, as the notice on the gate has it. The leat, which can be seen crossing the field in the background (see Image) was used for irrigation.
