Northam Burrows forms part of the newly designated United Nations Biosphere Reserve. It is situated on the western edge of the Taw Torridge Estuary and has its origins in Saxon times as the Manorial Wasteland. It is now designated as an SSI. The area is approximately 253 hectares comprising a grassy coastal plain with salt marsh, sand dunes and unimproved grasslands. It is also a site of Special Scientific Interest allowing residents of the 'Old manor' rights to graze their animals.
