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.
A curvilinear bank circa 4m wide and 125m long is visible as an earthwork on aerial photographs of 1946 and visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2019, on the north-west facing slopes west of Dunwell Quarry.
The visible earthwork corresponds with a field boundary depicted on 1843 Tithe Map for Ugborough, but not the Ordnance Survey 1880s First Edition 25inch map.
The relict earthwork is interpreted as the remains of a field boundary of probable medieval origin that had been cleared as part of later-19th century agricultural improvements.
