Linear earthwork banks, circa 7m in width, are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1965 and on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, to the northwest of Home Park, Denbury and Torbryan. The northeast to southwest and north to south aligned earthworks are in keeping with the historic field pattern depicted in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map which is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields, although they do not correspond with any linear features shown on this map, or on subsequent available historic maps. They are interpreted as possible relict field boundaries of potential medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
