Scope and Content
Cooke, G. A. A topographical and statistical description of the county of Devon. London: Sherwood & Co., C. 1830. pp. 130-1.The church of Bicton, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, is thus described by Polwhele: "It is a small, but neat building: its situation is most romantic: placed in silence and solitude, it stands embowered amidst the fine deep foliage of forest trees that surround it at a little distance, and interweave their branches, as if to secure it from every prying eye."[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
