Full description
Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.
The visible earthworks do not correspond with any boundary depicted on the Tithe Map for Buckland Monachorum.
Environment Agency, 2000-2019, LiDAR DTM data (1m resolution) EA: Tamar Aerial Survey project area, LIDAR Environment Agency LAST RETURN 19-APR-2019 (Cartographic). SDV363954.
Banks are identifiable as subtle earthworks.
Hegarty, C., Knight, S. and Sims, R., 2020-2021, Tamar/Lidar; A Single Source Approach to Landscape Survey and Socially Distanced Community Archaeology (AI&M project) (Interpretation). SDV363945.
Linear banks are identifiable as subtle earthworks up to circa 12m wide and 80m long on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2019 on the south-west facing slopes south of Balstone.
The visible earthworks do not correspond with any boundaries depicted on the 19th century maps available to the survey. They are, however, in keeping with the character of the surrounding field pattern and have been interpreted as evidence of field boundaries of medieval origin that had been cleared by the mid-19th century.
Understanding Landscapes Project, 2020-2021, University of Exeter Understanding Landscapes Project - Volunteer data (Interpretation). SDV363949.
Faintly showing bank may be a field boundary SX 47313 68462.
