A cropmark of a possible small ditched defined oval enclosure of unknown date
is visible on aerial photographs to the west of Lower Firebeacon Farm, Hartland. The cropmark is centred on circa SS23882018, on south-east facing slopes of a steeply incised combe. The cropmark is incompletely visible, but if complete would define an enclosure roughly 65 metres long and 45 metres wide. The cropmark is not visible on the later aerial photographs available to the survey.
