Linear banks were visible as earthworks on aerial photographs of 1982 and digital images derived from lidar data captured from 1998 to 2014 on the east-facing slopes of Godworthy Moor, east of Godworthy Farm.
The visible earthworks do not correspond with any boundaries depicted on the 19th century maps available to the survey. The banks are therefore interpreted as evidence of former field boundaries of probable post-medieval to early 19th century date that were removed prior to the mid-to-late 19th century. They may be associated with 1815 an enclosure award on Godworthy Moor.
