Summary
Several curvilinear earthwork banks and ditches, visible on aerial photograps taken in 1946 and on images derived from lidar data captured in 2013, are interpreted as the remains of a medieval field system, parts of which fell out of use before the mid-19th century.

Several curvilinear earthwork banks and ditches, up to approximately 7 metres wide, are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1946 and on images derived from lidar data captured in 2013 to the south-east of Combe Cross. They fit into the field pattern, which has been characterised as medieval in origin, and some are depicted as field boundaries on the tithe map. However many are not depicted on the available historic mapping, and these are likely to be field boundaries that fell out of use before the mid-19th century. Only those parts that are not depicted on the historic mapping have been transcribed.
