Site FTC26.01. At the centre of the site was a north-west to south-east orientated ditch (26.01.010), 1.10 metres wide and 0.33 metres deep, the fill of which contained 41 sherds of post-medieval [sic] pottery. A number of other ditches and pits were also revealed which were undated. The pottery comprised a single sherd of 16th-18th century pottery with an internal green glaze which is possibly intrusive and 40 sherds of 14th-15th century wheel-thrown South Devon micaceous ware.

Site 32. Occupation at Forder Cross, Ugborough. A number of pits and ditches were revealed, most of which remain undated. Near the centre of the plot, however, was a curving ditch, 26.01.010, which contained 41 [sic] sherds of medieval pottery and a single sherd of 16th-17th century pottery. Neither this or the other features correspond with the field pattern depicted on the 1843 Tithe Map and it appears likely, therefore, that they are remnants of pre-modern occupation.
