The Little Silver in question can be located by going to -

http://old-maps.co.uk

and at centre left in the search box enter the following into the
co-ordinates field:-

302470 93765

and click GO. On the next page select from the options on the righthand
side, 1890-1891 PRE WWII, 1:10,560 DEVON. Little Silver will be in the
centre of the displayed map. Click on Zoom, then use the Enhanced Zoom for a
closer look. There appears to be a small cottage on the inside of the bend.

You can get your beargings by entering the same co-ordinates into

http://streetmap.co.uk

which will clearly show it in relation to Rockbeare.
