Summary
[edit]DescriptionMemorial, near Bicton Park - geograph.org.uk - 364467.jpg |
English: Brick pillar with rectangular stone cap bearing religious inscriptions and a cross, according to Pevsner (2004) erected in 1580 by the Sheriff of Devon who had ordered the burning of a witch at the crossroads. In 1743 Lady Rolle (sic) of Bicton House added 4 tablets naming the places to which each road leads. (Pevsner, Nikolaus & Cherry, Bridget, The Buildings of England: Devon, London, 2004, p.347) However, according to Rev. John Swete (d.1821) of Oxton House, it was built in 1743 by Henry Rolle, 1st Baron Rolle,[1] of Bicton House and Stevenstone, Devon. As well as serving as a signpost for the various places to which the four roads lead, it incorporates biblical inscriptions, such as "Her ways are ways of pleasantness", etc.[2] It stands between the parishes of Bicton and Otterton, Devon, both owned by the Rolle family.
