Bicton Common is one of 13 commons that make up East Devon
Heathland. The commons are laid down on Triassic pebble beds that
are thought to come from an area of desert that extended over the
English Channel to France. Vast rivers flowed across the basin
depositing the layers of pebble beds which we now associate with
the commons.
The commons also encompass many areas of historical and
archaeological interest, including a hill fort, some seventeen
burial mounds and a fire beacon. In addition, East Devon Heathland
is nationally important for breeding populations of a number of
endangered species, including Dartford warbler and nightjar.
As this cache used to belong to a series (Crossed Lines), with a
bonus that is now archived, there is no need to take note of the
letters/numbers.
