A linear cropmark which has formed over an infilled ditch is interpreted as a field boundary of unknown, but potential medieval, date.

Hegarty, C., Knight, S. and Sims, R., 2016, Backlog Recording of the Tamar Valley National Mapping Programme Survey (Personal Comment). SDV359374.

The field boundary is perhaps equally likely to be of post-medieval date. Only part of the photo reference is given in the transcription attributes, so the date of the photograph is not known.
