Full description

Environment Agency WMS, 2021, Environment Agency LIDAR Composite DTM 2020 - 1m (Cartographic). SDV364513.

Two sections of reave, aligned south-west by north-east are visible on the lidar data. North-western reave measures roughly 100m; the south-eastern reave is longer; around 122m. These have been interrupted by the later field system to the north but are on the same alignment and appear very likely to be an extension of the Dartmeet reave system to the north.
