Today Riddipit Farmstead is a ruin to the right of the path from Norsworthy Bridge at the northern tip of Burrator reservoir running alongside the River Meavy heading north just past Leather Tor clapper bridge. Further up the lane over a sty in the modern forestry fencing are the remains of a potato cave associated to the farmstead. Both the farmstead ruins and potato cave are registered monuments with Historic England. The farmstead is thought to originate from the 16th century with pottery recovered from the site to corroborate this thesis, the earliest known occupation of the site from tenancy history was in 1565 with the last known tenant in 1839.
Several members of the Worth family are mentioned on the tenant history including Nicholas Worth in 1668 and 1673 records and Michael Worth his son in 1740. The farmstead was also home to Shellabeare, Giles, Crebar and Pearse family members over the years, common surnames within the Walkhampton parish.
Many variations of the name have been seen over the years in records including Redapit, Reddapitt, Reedipitt, Riddipit.
