Bicton, Devon history
Bicton appears in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Bechetone, held by William Porter, probably by the service of guarding the gate at Exeter Castle and the prison there. The manor passed through several families until Sir Thomas Denys (1559–1613) left two daughters as co-heiresses. The gardens were begun in around 1735, supposedly to a design by André Le Nôtre, but most of the work was undertaken by John Rolle in the early 19th century. This included digging of the lake in 1812 by French prisoners of war, planting the arboretum in 1830 and the noted araucaria avenue in 1842.
