Full description
Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.
The visible earthwork does not correspond with a depicted boundary.
Royal Air Force, 1947, RAF/CPE/UK/1974, RAF/CPE/UK/1974 FS 2451-2452 11-APR-1947 (Aerial Photograph). SDV356127.
A narrow curvilinear earthwork bank was visible.
Environment Agency, 1998-2014, LiDAR DTM data (1m resolution), LIDAR ST1203 Environment Agency DTM 01-JAN-1998 to 30-SEP-2014 (Cartographic). SDV359177.
A narrow curvilinear earthwork bank was visible.

This area was probably first enclosed with hedge-banks during the later middle ages. The curving form of the hedge-banks suggests that earlier it may have been farmed as open strip-fields.

A low and narrow curvilinear earthwork bank was visible on aerial photographs of 1947 and digital images derived lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014, on the south-east facing slopes south-west of Collyhayes Farm, Awliscombe parish. The visible earthwork falls within a field system characterised by HLC as probably of later medieval date based on medieval strip fields. The earthwork is therefore interpreted as the remains of a former field boundary potentially of later medieval date. It does not correspond with any boundary depicted on the Tithe Map for Awliscombe and was therefore removed by the mid-19th century.
