Arms of Beryman of Berrie, in the parish of (Dunsford ?), Devon: Argent, a chevron between three horses trippant sable (Vivian, Lt.Col. J.L., (Ed.) The Visitations of the County of Devon: Comprising the Heralds' Visitations of 1531, 1564 & 1620, Exeter, 1895, p.82, Beryman of Berrie). A clue as to the location of "Berrie" is contained in the short pedigree above, as "John Beriman of Berie" (fl.1620) married Elizabeth Fulford, a daughter of Thomas Fulford of Great Fulford in the parish of Dunsford, and most of their children were baptised at Dunsford. An historic farmhouse exists today in the parish of Dunsford, named "Berry Barton, Dunsford", which contains "a moulded plaster ceiling of the C16-C17 (which) implies a period of wealth and high status", consistent with a seat of an armigerous family such as Beryman. It is described as follows in www.devonruralarchive.com[1]:

"Berry is first named in the C13 as La Byry, when it was a possession of Canonsleigh Priory, as part of the Domesday Manor of Dunsford. It was acquired by the Fulford Estate after the dissolution of the monasteries.

The farm appears to have been placed in this unusual location to take advantage of an Iron Age earthwork enclosure, which occupies the slight rise in the ground just to the west. This probably became a stock enclosure, with the farmstead being located just outside, in a similar manner to nearby Melhuish and Middle Town. Despite its absence from Domesday Book, this association with a prehistoric enclosure may mean that the farm was an un-named settlement within the Manor of Dunsford in 1086. Description: Berry Barton lies unusually on a level hilltop site, just north of the ridge road from Cheriton Bishop to Dunsford. The house is of rendered cob with a slated, formerly thatched roof and has a three room and cross-passage plan, with additional rooms to its south-east end and lean-tos to the rear. It faces south-west, with its outbuildings flanking an irregular tapered farmyard to the north. Most of these are modern, but the stone plinth of a large threshing barn lies on the west side of the yard. An interesting house, probably with surviving medieval fabric in its unusual ground-plan. The later modifications show that it continued to be important, while the former presence of a moulded plaster ceiling of the C16-C17 implies a period of wealth and high status."
