Jones-Lutescu, P, 2014, Land to the Northwest of Cullompton, Devon (Report - Assessment). SDV359834.

A historic environment assessment has been undertaken by AC archaeology during September and October 2014 as part of forthcoming planning applications for proposed mixed use development on c. 70 hectares of land to the northwest of Cullompton, Devon.

A sinuous northeast to southwest aligned earthwork ditch which generally respects the historic field boundaries and may be of potential medieval date, although appears to have passed out of use by the
time of the parish tithe map of approximately 1841.

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 an earthwork ditch on aerial photographs of 1947 onwards, to the north of Devonia House. The sinuous northeast to southwest aligned earthwork generally respects the historic field boundaries and may be of potential medieval date, although appears to have passed out of use by the time of the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48. The northeast extent of the former boundary also appears to correspond to a kink in an historic field boundary on this map. It remains visible as an earthwork ditch on digital images derived from Lidar images captured in 2005.
