PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although stocks have managed to post solid returns through the first four
months of 1996, signs of strength in the economy have led to inflation
fears, causing some uncertainty in bond markets so far this year. In 1995,
both stock and bond markets posted strong results, while the year before,
stocks posted below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in
history.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
If you can leave your money invested over the long term, you can avoid the
results of the volatility that generally accompanies the stock market in
the short term. You also can help to manage some of the risks of investing
through diversification. A stock fund is already diversified because it
invests in many issues. You can diversify even further by placing some of
your money in several different types of stock funds or in other investment
categories, such as bonds.
If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to consider
moving some of your investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain
amount of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. A fund's total
return includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells securities that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED APRIL 30, 1996 PAST 1 LIFE OF
YEAR FUND
Mid-Cap Stock 30.84% 59.57%
S&P MidCap 400(registered trademark) 29.81% 38.27%
Mid-Cap Funds Average 35.34% n/a
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, one year, or since the fund started on
March 29, 1994. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5%
return over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050.
You can compare the fund's returns to the performance of the Standard &
Poor's MidCap 400 Index - a broad measure of the performance of the mid-cap
market. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers,
you can compare it to the mid-cap funds average, which reflects the
performance of 126 mid-cap funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services over the past 12 months. Both benchmarks include
reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity
Mid-Cap Stock Fund on March 29, 1994, when the fund started. As the chart
shows, by April 30, 1996, the value of your investment would have grown to
$15,957 - a 59.57% increase on your initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the S&P MidCap 400 Index did over the same period. With
dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 investment in the S&P MidCap 400
Index would have grown to $13,827 - a 38.27% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
Although rising interest rates
added to an already clouded
corporate earnings outlook in the
first quarter of 1996, stocks
managed to post solid returns for
the 12 months ended April 30,
1996. The Standard & Poor's 500
Index finished the period with a
return of 30.21% (including
reinvested dividends) - well
above its long-term historical
annual average of about 12%.
During the period, the market
appeared to lose its appetite for
the blue-chip, multinational firms
that drove the market in 1995.
This development was due in part
to a stronger dollar, surging cash
flows into mutual funds and the
higher valuations of
large-capitalization stocks relative
to small-capitalization stocks.
Additionally, technology
companies no longer had the
broad-based share price
increases they did in 1995. Falling
semiconductor prices worldwide
punished computer chip makers'
stocks, and the market put more
of an emphasis on software and
networking companies. Rising
interest rates - while fanning
fears of lower corporate earnings -
and higher commodity prices
caused another major shift in the
stock market. Investors, sensing a
renewed economic expansion,
moved from less economically
sensitive stocks like consumer
non-durables to more cyclical
sectors, such as aluminum,
chemical, oil, oil service and
basic industries. Financial stocks
performed well throughout the
period as high stock market
volume and the demand for
financial services created a
positive backdrop for the industry.
An interview with Jennifer Uhrig, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Mid-Cap
Stock Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, JENNIFER?
A. The fund outperformed its index, but lagged its peer group during the
period. During the 12 months ending April 30, 1996, the fund had a return
of 30.84%, while the S&P MidCap 400 index returned 29.81%. The mid-cap
funds average returned 35.34%, according to Lipper Analytical Services.
Q. WHAT WERE THE KEY FACTORS IN THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. In retrospect, I probably ran the fund less aggressively than I should
have during a period of very strong stock market performance. Cutting back
the fund's holdings in the technology sector - from more than 22% on
October 31, 1995 to less than 14% on April 30 - hurt its performance
compared to other mid-cap funds when the technology sector rebounded early
this year. Additionally, the technology stocks the fund continued to hold
were generally a less speculative variety, and they underperformed more
speculative tech stocks.
Q. IT SEEMS THAT AS YOU TRIMMED THE FUND'S TECHNOLOGY HOLDINGS YOU INVESTED
MORE IN FINANCIAL SERVICES AND DURABLES . . .
A. That's right. I've been investing in insurance stocks, which I saw as a
good way to gain exposure to financial services without having to worry
about credit deterioration, which we have started to see with banks. I also
liked the valuations in the insurance sector. UNUM, for example, was a
newcomer to the fund's 10 largest holdings and is a strong secular story as
well. It is a leader in disability insurance, which I feel is an
underpenetrated market showing strong growth. Household International, a
consumer finance company and another top-10 holding, has been a turnaround
story where new management has improved operations and reduced costs. As a
result, the stock gained more than 20 percent during the period. On the
durables side, Lear Seating, which manufactures seats for the automobile
industry, has benefited from the outsourcing trend in that industry, as
well as from the acquisition of other auto parts suppliers.
Q. WHAT OTHER HOLDINGS PERFORMED WELL FOR THE FUND?
A. Interestingly, the four largest positions at the end of the period all
contributed to the fund's performance, while representing four very
different sectors. Sallie Mae, the student loan company, leveraged its
strong balance sheet, bought back stock and reduced costs. Wisconsin
Central, a railroad company, made strategic acquisitions, including the
government-owned New Zealand rail system, and continued its excellent
growth story. Cytec, a specialty chemical company which I've discussed in
the past, rose by about 50% during the period. WorldCom has been a
successful wholesaler of telephone services over its low-cost network. Like
Cytec, its stock price grew about 44% during the period.
Q. AT THE SAME TIME, THERE MUST HAVE BEEN SOME DISAPPOINTMENTS . . .
A. That's true. Nokia, a manufacturer of cellular phones and equipment,
suffered during the period due to intense price competition and was a
disappointment. Another disappointment was Symantec, a seller of software
utilities for the PC market that failed to meet sales expectations. Its
stock declined as a result.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS?
A. During 1994 and 1995, the larger companies within the fund's universe
outperformed the smaller ones. Beginning this February, the situation
reversed, as smaller companies began to outperform the larger companies
quite dramatically. Over the past three months, for example, the Russell
2000 index of smaller-cap stocks jumped 10.84%, the S&P Mid-Cap index rose
7.83%, and the S&P 500 Index of larger companies moved up 3.40%.
Nonetheless, because of the smaller companies' two years of weak stock
performance, I feel this segment of the mid-cap universe still looks
attractive from a valuation standpoint, and I will try to exploit this
opportunity based on bottom-up stock picking on a company-by-company basis.

JENNIFER UHRIG ON THE
CHANGING DYNAMICS WITHIN
THE MID-CAP MARKET:
"The mid-cap universe covers
a broad territory, generally
including small companies with
market capitalizations of
around $100 million up to large
companies with capitalizations
of about $5 billion. It's not
surprising, then, that different
parts of this broad universe
outperform or lag at different
times depending on whether
small- or large-company
stocks are in favor. In the
1980s, the large companies
dominated the market. Starting
in 1991 and continuing over the
next two years, small- and
mid-cap companies started to
outperform. But that rally never
got to the extremes you
normally see in a real bull
small-cap cycle. Then in 1994
and 1995, the smaller
companies had two relatively
weak years, leading to some
very attractive valuations today.
"This year's outperformance,
combined with reasonable
valuations, suggest that the
smaller-company cycle is
coming back. So I've begun
working on increasing the
fund's exposure to the smaller
end of the mid-cap universe.
In view of this, it's possible
that the average market
capitalization of the fund's
holdings - about $2 billion, and
fairly typical for my index over
the past year - could go down
as I invest more in relatively
smaller companies within the
mid-cap market. But I still don't
think I'll be chasing the more
speculative parts of the
market. There's too much risk
for the potential reward."

</TABLE>
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Mid-Cap Stock Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Devonshire
Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.
The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The financial statements have
been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
which permit management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the
date of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant
accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
exchange quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in good
faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision
of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities maturing within sixty days
of their purchase date are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus
accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent
net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward currency
contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions,
and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and
the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the
net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the
ex-dividend date. Interest income, which includes accretion of original
issue discount, is accrued
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
INVESTMENT INCOME - CONTINUED
as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld
where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for losses
deferred due to wash sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits
distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the
dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income
or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund may use foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign securities and to manage
the fund's currency exposure. Contracts to buy generally are used to
acquire exposure to foreign currencies, while contracts to sell are used to
hedge the fund's investments against currency fluctuations. Also, a
contract to buy or sell can offset a previous contract. Losses may arise
from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties
do not perform under the contracts' terms.
The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other affiliated
entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer
uninvested
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT - CONTINUED
cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are
invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in 60 days or
less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency securities, the market
value of which is required to be at least equal to the repurchase price.
For term repurchase agreement transactions, the underlying securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
repurchase price. FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $2,299,571,000 and $1,662,739,000, respectively, of which U.S.
government and government agency obligations aggregated $40,123,000 and
$27,556,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
basic fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed
individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of the fund. The
group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on
the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The
rates ranged from .2500% to .5200% for the period. In the event that these
rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period,
FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same
or a lower management fee. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. The
basic fee is subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum of
(plus/minus) .20%) based on the fund's investment performance as compared
to the appropriate index over a specified period of time. For the period,
the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .68% of average net
assets after the performance adjustment.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to
account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and
mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the
period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .24%
of average net assets.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
ACCOUNTING FEES. FSC maintains the fund's accounting records. The fee is
based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket
expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,000,000 for the period.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$246,000 under this arrangement.
In addition, the fund has entered into an arrangement with its transfer
agent whereby interest earned on uninvested cash balances was used to
offset a portion of the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's
transfer agent fees were reduced by $16,000 under this arrangement.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Devonshire Trust and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Mid-Cap Stock Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of

and brokers. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Fidelity Devonshire Trust: Fidelity Mid-Cap Stock Fund as of April 30,
1996, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in
its net assets, and the financial highlights for the year then ended, and
for the period February 1, 1995 to April 30, 1995 and for the period March
29, 1994 (commencement of operations) to January 31, 1995, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

DISTRIBUTIONS
The Board of Trustees of Fidelity MidCap Stock Fund voted to pay on June
10, 1996, to shareholders of record at the opening of business on June 7,
1996, a distribution of $.54 per share derived from capital gains realized
from sales of portfolio securities.
A total of 1.0% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year was
derived from interest on U.S. Government securities which is generally
exempt from state income tax.
A total of 10.0% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year
qualifies for the dividends-received deduction for corporate shareholders.
The fund will notify shareholders in January 1997 of these percentages for
use in preparing 1996 income tax returns.
