Perpendicular linear features each defined by 1 ditch, max. length 100m. Visible as cropmarks and transcribed from aerial photographs taken in 1946. Interpreted as former field boundaries of medieval or later date.

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

The cropmarks do not correspond with any field boundaries depicted on the Tithe map. These probable former field boundaries are therefore likely to have gone out of use by the mid nineteenth century.
