Possible former field boundaries of potential medieval date are visible as a series of earthwork banks on aerial photographs of 1947 onwards, to the southwest of Corrymoor Farm. The earthworks survive as earthwork banks on digital images derived from lidar data captured in 2016.

Full description

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

The two northern boundaries are not depicted on the Parish Tithe Map, whilst that to the south may be associated with the road here.

The earthwork field boundaries are partly visible.

The earthwork field boundaries are visible. Map object partly based on this source.

Former field boundaries of potential medieval date are visible as a series of earthwork banks on aerial photographs of 1947 onwards, to the southwest of Corrymoor Farm. The linear southeast to northwest aligned earthworks are parallel to and on the northern side of Blackhayes Lane. The two northern field boundaries are not depicted on the Parish Tithe Map, so appear to have passed out of use by this time. That to the south, however, may represent a former roadside boundary, although the position of the road appears to have shifted slightly sometime after this map. The earthworks survive as earthwork banks on digital images derived from lidar data captured in 2016.
