Full description

Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.

The cropmark does not correspond with any depicted field boundaries.


Cornwall County Council, 2002, Cornwall National Mapping Programme (Archive - Survey). SDV350748.

A single linear feature defined by 1 bank, max. length 55m. Visible as a cropmark, although no aerial photograph reference is attributed to this site, and interpreted as a former field boundary of medieval or later date.


Knight, S., 2012, Backlog Input Element of the North Devon Coast AONB National Mapping Programme Project (Interpretation). SDV350734.

No field boundary is depicted in this location on the Tithe map or later available historic mapping, and it is therefore likely to have gone out of use by the mid nineteenth century.
