Linear earthwork banks, between 3-7m wide, are visible on digital images derived from aerial photographs taken in 2011 and lidar data captured in 2013, at Lower Wotton, Denbury and Torbryan. The northeast to southwest 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. The earthworks are therefore interpreted as relict field boundaries of medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
