Full description
Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.
The earthworks do not correspond with any linear features in this location.
Environment Agency, 1998-2017, LiDAR DTM data (1m resolution) EA: South Devon Coast to Dartmoor, LIDAR SX8273 Environment Agency DTM 01-JAN-1998 to 31-MAY-2017 (Cartographic). SDV361470.
Two linear earthwork banks are visible.
Hegarty, C., Knight, S. and Sims, R., 2018-2019, The South Devon Coast to Dartmoor Aerial Investigation and Mapping Survey. Area 1, Haldon Ridge to Dart Valley (AI&M) (Interpretation). SDV361305.
Linear earthwork banks, circa 10m wide, are visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, to the southeast of Higher Staplehill, Newton Abbot. The parallel northeast to southwest aligned earthworks do not correspond with any linear features shown in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps. They are broadly in keeping with the historic field pattern depicted in this location characterised as Barton fields and are interpreted as possible relict medieval or post-medieval field boundaries which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
