Opis
Fire Beacon Hill is part of the East Devon Pebblebed Heath. Whilst the Pebblebed Heath once covered a vaste area now this site is a bit of an 'island', with the land around it having been turned to agriculture and forestry many years ago. It's nearest heathland 'neighbour' is Mutter's Moor (see seperate entry) further South. The main East Devon Pebblebed Heath is further West that includes Aylesbeare Common and Hawkerland Valley/Venn Ottery Common/Bystock Pools Nature Reserve and Squabmoor Reservoir/Colaton Raleigh Common/Woodbury Common and Bicton Common (see seperate entries).
Fire Beacon Hill gets its name from the Fire Beacon that warned Elizabethan London of the approach of the Spanish Armada. BE AWARE Grazing animals may be present on site, recently Vitual Fencing Technology has been tried at this site, with animals fitted with GPS collars to keep them on site without physical fences.
Depending on season some birds you can see are kląskawka, krogulec, drzemlik, myszołów, świergotek drzewny, świerszczak, mysikrólik and the sites speciality lelek. The area is reasonably well wooded with both deciduous and conifers, with more open heathland at it's centre, it has some of the best views of the English Channel and Lyme Bay to the South.
