A bank will almost certainly accept it. The requirement is that it should be reasonably clear who is intended to receive the money. Just in case you meet a super-cautious teller, bring with you the envelope in which the cheque came.

As long as your name is Mr Devon & it is being lodged into a Devon named account, it should be ok.
