There is no corresponding database record for this rectilinear ditch. It is interpreted as an enclosure of possible late prehistoric or Roman-British date.

There are two transcriptions for this monument, one derived from the Winkleigh NMP project and one from the Devon Air Photograph project, which are offset by approximately 25m. It is not known which of the transcriptions is the more accurate.
