An irregularly shaped shallow pit or hollow circa 30 by 15m in size is visible on lidar derived images as an earthwork under pasture on the south-facing combe slopes to the south-east of Farley, Chudleigh. Low mounds, probably spoil heaps, are visible on the south and eastern edges of the pits. The earthwork is probably the remains of an extractive pit of 19th-century date, potentially associated with a possible lime kiln site to the north-east.
