A pit circa 25 by 17m in size is visible as an earthwork on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. The visible earthwork does not correspond with any pit depicted 19th century maps available to the survey but does match a small coppice (Plot 116b on the Tithe Map for Combeinteignhead) which supports the interpretation it had passed out of use by the early-19th century before being reused as woodland.
