Hegarty, C. + Knight, S. + Sims, R., 2014-2015, East and Mid Devon River Catchments National Mapping Programme Project (Interpretation). SDV356883.
A curvilinear ditch, up to circa 9 metres in width, is visible as an earthwork on images derived from lidar data captured in 2010. No field boundaries are depicted in this exact location on the available historic mapping, but the earthwork is on the same alignment and appears to link field boundaries to the east and west that are depicted on historic and modern mapping.
The earthwork fits into the field pattern in this area, and is interpreted as the relict remains of a former medieval field boundary, which appears to have passed out of use prior to the mid-19th century.
