Hegarty, C. + Knight, S. + Sims, R., 2013-2014, South Devon Coast Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey National Mapping Programme Project (Interpretation). SDV351146.
Former field boundaries of potential medieval date are visible as a series of slight linear earthwork banks on digital images derived from LiDAR data captured between 1998-2012, to the east of South Town. The former boundaries are broadly northeast to south west aligned and occupy an area of approximately 16.5 hectares of gentle northeast sloping ground to the north of the A379. The slight and fairly diffuse earthwork banks generally respect the historic field patterns based on medieval strip fields and appear to have fallen out of use by the time of the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48. The former field boundaries were not clearly visible on other aerial photographs or digital images made available to the survey.
