Full description

Young, A., 2005, Transcriptions from Winkleigh Biomass Plant National Mapping Programme (NMP) project (Cartographic). SDV321540.

Transcriptions of linear banks and a ditch correspond to the grid reference for PRN167167.

Young, A. & Turner, S., 2005-2006, North Devon/Winkleigh Biomass Plant National Mapping Programme (NMP) project database records, PRN167167 (Interpretation). SDV358473.

A series of removed field boundaries are visible on aerial photographs (p1) and were digitally plotted as part of the National Mapping Programme. At the quoted NGR three boundaries survive as low earth banks, as does a fourth boundary to the north at SX46113 89398. To the south, at SX46821 88766 is a length of boundary visible as a cropmark ditch. The features lie within an area classed as medieval enclosures in the Historic Landscape Characterisation for Devon and are likely to be medieval or later in origin.
