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

Two linear earthwork banks, 2-3 metres in width, are visible on aerial photographs from 2000 and on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. One appears to terminate at or near a dog-leg in an extant field boundary to the south, and they are interpreted as relict field boundary banks. The field pattern has been characterised as medieval enclosures, and they may have a medieval origin.
