Former field boundaries of possible medieval to 19th century date were visible on aerial photographs as earthworks to the north-west of Barton Farm, Combe Raleigh. The former boundaries, visible as linear earthwork ditches, are not depicted on the Tithe map for Combe Raleigh and had therefore been removed prior to the 1840s. Their regular form might suggest a post medieval date but their roughly parallel layout might support an interpretation of an origin as strip fields of medieval date.
