240 million years in the making, the East Devon Pebblebed HeathS
are amongst the most highly regarded conservation sites in Europe.
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Lord Clinton aged 89, peacefully at his home in East Devon on 2nd April 2024. Born Gerard Fane in 1934, he became the 22nd Baron Clinton in 1965, taking on responsibility for 25,000 acres across three estates in North and East Devon, known collectively as Clinton Devon Estates.
I hope you will join us in offering our sincerest condolences to Lord Clinton’s family and friends.
