Full description

Foster, K. + Skinner, R., 01/2016, A30 to A303 Honiton to Devonshire Inn Improvement Scheme, Honiton, Devon (Report - Assessment). SDV359378.

DBA undertaken along a corridor associated with the A30/A303 between Honiton and Devonshire Inn. This study is intended to inform the development of options for improvements to the A30/A303 between Honiton and Devonshire Inn.

During the walkover survey a roughly square terraced platform was recorded (Figure 8, WA 149 Plate 10). The platform is situated within a field of pasture approximately 130 metres to the south of Furzy cottage in Rawridge. Although superficially resembling a settlement site the platform corresponds to an enclosure named as a ‘nursery’ depicted on the Tithe Map of the 1840s.
