The site of two conjoined claypits shown on 19th century maps to the east of Pinn Barton Farm is visible as earthworks and cropmarks on aerial photographs of the 1940s onwards. The pits visible on 1946 vertical photography correspond closely to those depicted on the Ordnance Survey 25 inch first edition map. The cropmark of the infilled pits, visible on the 1987 DAP oblique aerial photograph, might reflect the possibly larger earlier extent more in keeping with the scale of the pits depicted on the Tithe map for Otterton.
