Linear and curvilinear cropmarks of ditches circa 1 to 2m wide are visible on aerial photographs of 1984 on the south-east facing slopes within the outer enclosure of Castle Dyke Camp, in Ugbrooke Park, Chudleigh. The cropmarks cross the interior of a larger rectilinear ditched enclosure, recorded separately as MDV37463. Potentially of later prehistoric to Roman date, the function of the ditches is unknown. The relationship between the different cropmark elements and the larger ditched enclosure is unclear, but they do not appear to be associated with the broader ditches of the larger enclosure.
