Hiscott Devon Map

About Hiscott

Hiscott breathes the quietude of North Devon's rolling heartland. It lies 7.2 km south of Barnstaple (from Barnstaple: bearing 188°T, OS grid SS 546 261), and is situated east-south-east of Newton Tracey village. The lanes here, often bordered by ancient hedgerows that hum with unseen insect life, wind with a gentle persistence, suggesting a landscape that has yielded to the plough and the shepherd's crook over centuries. A sense of deep, earthy peace pervades Hiscott, a stillness punctuated only by the distant bleating of sheep and the soft sigh of wind through the fields. The very air seems to hold the scent of damp earth and wild grasses, a subtle perfume that speaks of a place content in its own enduring existence.
