Orchard banks of probable post-medieval to modern date are visible as a series of linear earthwork banks on aerial photographs of 1946 onwards, to the east of Coombe Farm. The site of the orchard is first mentioned on the Cullompton parish tithe map apportionment of approximately 1838-48 and is symbolised on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of between the 1880’s-90’s, although by aerial photographs of 1946, the orchard trees had been clearly grubbed out. The orchard banks are northwest to southeast aligned and occupy an area of approximately 0.33 hectares of northwest facing slope. The earthworks remain visible on digital images derived from aerial photographs taken in 2010.
