Parallel ridging is visible as earthworks on aerial photographs (p1). It is very straight and narrow and therefore considered likely to be post medieval in origin, probably drainage. The site was digitally plotted during the National Mapping Programme and is sited within an area described as medieval enclosures based on strip fields in the Historic Landscape Characterisation for Devon.
