Full description
South West Heritage Trust, 1838-1848, Digitised Tithe Maps and Transcribed Apportionments (Cartographic). SDV359954.
The visible earthworks do not correspond with any boundaries depicted on the Tithe Map for Cornwood.
Environment Agency, 1998-2017, LiDAR DTM data (1m resolution) EA: South Devon Coast to Dartmoor, LIDAR SX5958 Environment Agency DTM 01-JAN-1998 to 31-MAY-2017 (Cartographic). SDV361470.
Curvilinear banks are visible as earthworks.
Hegarty, C., Knight, S. and Sims, R., 2019-2020, The South Devon Coast to Dartmoor Aerial Investigation and Mapping Survey. Area 2, Avon Valley to Plymouth (AI&M, formerly NMP) (Interpretation). SDV362982.
Roughly parallel curvilinear banks circa 150m long, 8m to 15m wide and 8m to 20m apart are visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017 as earthworks crossing the contours of the east-facing slopes overlooking the Piall River, north of Slade Barton, Cornwood.
The banks are interpreted as the remains of strip fields of probable medieval to post-medieval date.
The boundaries may have been cleared during the creation of Slade Park (MDV54851) in the 18th century.
