Deptford Farm Pastures is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in Devon, England. It is located 6km north of Kilkhampton, near Meddon Plantation. It was designated in 1991 as a protected area because of the traditionally managed heath, mire and fen at the site that form a community known as Culm Grassland. It is dominated by the plant species, Succisa pratensis, and also contains the rare plant Genista anglica. This protected area contains a large colony of the rare butterfly: the Marsh Fritillary.
