BHD - Berry Head VOR/DME 28th April 2003 Berry Head VOR/DME is in the middle of the Berry Head Nature Reserve at Brixham in Devon. There's a country walkway that goes right past the beacon. Easiest way to access is to park at the Nature Reserve car park and walk. A couple of walkers stopped me and asked me what the beacon was. I think they got more than they bargained for in explanation!! (Click on the small images for the bigger originals) |
