Linear earthwork banks, circa 5m wide, are visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, at Whitstone Farm, Bovey Tracey. The earthworks are broadly northeast to southwest and east to west aligned and partly define three rectilinear enclosures. They 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, but are in keeping with the field pattern shown in this location which is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields. The earthworks are therefore interpreted as relict medieval or post-medieval field boundaries of small land parcels which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
