A linear earthwork ditch, circa 7m wide and north to south aligned is visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, to east of Five Wyches Cross, Bovey Tracey. The earthwork is also visible as a pale cropmark on aerial imagery taken in 2002. It does not correspond with any linear features shown in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps, but is broadly in keeping with the historic field pattern depicted in this location. The earthwork is interpreted as a possible relict medieval or post-medieval field boundary which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
