About Bickerton

Bickerton, a quiet corner of the South Hams, exhales the scent of damp earth and distant sea. It lies 7.3 km east of Salcombe (from Salcombe: bearing 89°T, OS grid SX 813 389), and is situated west of Hallsands village. The landscape around Bickerton rolls with a gentle persistence, each field a patch of muted green or ochre under a sky that often holds the promise of rain, lending a silvered sheen to the hedgerows. Ancient stone walls, built by hands long vanished, trace the contours of the land, their grey surfaces softened by the moss that clings like ancient velvet. The air here carries a certain stillness, broken only by the call of gulls or the distant bleating of sheep, a quiet testament to the enduring pastoral life. Even the sunlight, when it breaks through, seems to fall with a particular, thoughtful quality upon the modest cottages and farmsteads of Bickerton.
