Two pale and roughly parallel linear cropmarks were visible on aerial photographs of the 1940s on the gentle south-facing slopes near the head of a combe to the north of Jack’s House, Clayhidon parish.
The cropmarks fall within the surrounding extant field pattern and are interpreted as evidence of former field boundaries of post-medieval date. They do not match any boundaries shown on the Ordnance Survey First Edition 25inch map but may correspond with a former road or track shown on the Tithe Map for Clayhidon. As such, they are possibly evidence for hedge banks that previously flanked a road that was removed between the 1840s and 1890s.
