A series of roughly parallel linear features is visible on aerial photographs (p1). The features are on a similar alignment to surrounding extant field boundaries; they are sited within an area described as ‘Medieval enclosures based on strip fields’ in Devon’s Historic Landscape Characterisation, and are likely to be field boundaries of medieval or later origin. They have been digitally plotted as part of the National Mapping Programme.
