Hegarty, C. + Knight, S. + Sims, R., 2014-2015, East and Mid Devon River Catchments National Mapping Programme Project (Interpretation). SDV356883.

A former field boundary of potential medieval date is visible as a cropmark ditch on aerial photographs of 1947 and 1989, to the northeast of Tedbridge. The former field boundary is gently curvilinear in shape, is northeast to southwest aligned and closely respects the historic field patterns based on medieval strip fields. The former boundary ditch, which appears to have fallen out of use by the time of the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48, may be associated with the cropmark remains of a former bank, although this was not clearly visible on the aerial photographs and so was not transcribed.
