A mound was visible as a roughly circular earthwork approximately 15 metres in diameter on digital images derived from lidar data captured in 2016, to the south-east of New Barn Farm, Yarcombe parish. The date and function of the mound are not known, but it is possible the earthwork is simply part of a relict field system of probable medieval origin, recorded in this area as MDV119787.
