Hegarty, C. + Knight, S. + Sims, R., 2014-2015, East and Mid Devon River Catchments National Mapping Programme Project (Interpretation). SDV356883.

A possible former field boundary of potential medieval date is visible as an earthwork ditch on digital images derived from Lidar data captured between 2005 and 2010, at Halberton. The slight linear earthwork ditch is northeast to southwest aligned and generally respects the historic field patterns depicted on the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48, although the field boundary appears to have passed out of use by this time. The earthwork ditch was not clearly visible on aerial photographs or digital images made available to the survey.
