Full description

A former boundary was visible as a low earthwork bank.


Hegarty, C. + Knight, S. + Sims, R., 2016-2018, The Blackdown Hills AONB and East Devon River Catchments National Mapping Programme Project (Interpretation). SDV359463.

A possible former field boundary potentially of post-medieval date was visible on aerial photographs of the 1940s and digital images derived from lidar data as a linear earthwork bank almost 190 metres long to the north of Langford Bridge. The bank does not correspond with a boundary depicted on the Tithe Map for Luppitt parish, and was therefore probably removed prior to the 1840s.
