Linear possible ditched features less than a metre wide are visible as cropmarks for over 200 metres on digital images derived from aerial photographs, on a fairway at East Devon Golf Club. The linear features cross near the centre of a fairway forming an h-shaped cropmark, with further linear cropmarks visible to the north-east. The date and function of the ditched features are unknown but it is possible they are related to the drainage of the golf course.
