A former field boundary of probable post medieval date was visible on aerial photographs of 1946 as a possible low earthwork bank to the north-west of Doctors Farm. The possible former boundary sub-divided a field characterised as part of an area of Barton Fields, laid out probably from the 15th to the 18th century. The relict boundary does not correspond with any boundaries depicted on the Tithe map for Plymtree and therefore probably post-dates the 15th century and was removed or passed out of use by the 1840s. The earthwork was not identifiable on more recent aerial photographs and has probably been levelled.
