This entry was subject to a Minor Amendment on 29 September 2016, Removal of “Also in Loddiswell c.p.”. This text was added to the Description:- The GIS triangle depiction was moved slightly from SX7085749747 to SX7087549737. Thus placing it on the building and on the parish boundary between Aveton Gifford and Loddiswell which passes through the building. The grid reference was removed from the Details text.
