About Heavitree
Heavitree, located in Devon, England, is a historic district that once served as a civil parish outside the walls of Exeter. Known as the first significant village on the road to London, it has a rich history, being the birthplace of notable figures like librarian Thomas Bodley and theologian Richard Hooker. From the 16th century until 1818, Heavitree was also the site of executions, with remnants of its past present in the car park of the University of Exeter's St Luke's Campus. This blend of history and urban development may be of interest to those researching planning applications in the area. It sits within the Exeter district.
Heavitree sits at an elevation of 36 metres above sea level. The surrounding landscape and character of the area play an important role in how planning applications are assessed by the local authority.
