Full description

Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.

The earthwork banks are not depicted on the Tiverton parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48.

Royal Air Force, 1947, RAF/CPE/UK/1995 RP, RAF/CPE/UK/1995 RP 3278-79 13-APR-1947 (Aerial Photograph). SDV356899.

The southern of the two former field boundaries is visible as an earthwork bank.

Ordnance Survey, 1994, OS/94193 V, OS/94193 V 021-22 17-JUN-1994 (Aerial Photograph). SDV357339.

The former field boundaries are visible as earthwork banks.

Former field boundaries of potential medieval date are visible on aerial photographs of 1947 onwards, to the northeast of Deyman’s Hill House. The two parallel and curvilinear earthworks are broadly northeast to southwest aligned, are located on moderate northwest facing slope and measure up to 7m in width. The former field boundaries closely respect the historic field patterns of medieval enclosures based on strip fields, although appear to have passed out of use by the time of the Tiverton parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48. The relict boundaries are both visible on aerial photographs of 1994, with the northern most earthwork also possibly visible on digital images derived from Lidar data captured between 2005 and 2012. An additional earthwork bank was also visible on aerial photographs and digital images, although was depicted on historical mapping and so was not transcribed as part of this survey.
