Northeast to southwest aligned earthworks of a linear bank flanked by a ditch, both circa 5m wide, are visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, to the northwest of Parke, Bovey Tracey. The northern extent of the earthworks corresponds with a field boundary shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, although the remaining earthworks are not shown. They are interpreted as the earthworks of a relict field boundary of medieval or post-medieval date which had largely passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
