Full description
Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.
No field boundaries are depicted in these exact locations.
Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.
Part of this area is depicted as rough ground.
NERC, 2013, LiDAR DTM data (1m resolution) Tellus: Tamar Aerial Survey project area, LIDAR Tellus LAST RETURN 01-JUL-2013 to 31-AUG-2013 (Cartographic). SDV363955.
Curvilinear earthwork banks and ditches are indistinctly visible.
Hegarty, C., Houghton, E., Knight, S. and Sims, R., 2020-2021, Tamar/Lidar; A Single Source Approach to Landscape Survey and Socially Distanced Community Archaeology Area 2 (Culture Recovery Fund project) (Interpretation). SDV364011.
Curvilinear earthwork banks and ditches, up to approximately 10 metres wide, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2013. They are indistinct, but fit into the extant field system depicted on the historic mapping, and are tentatively interpreted as the remains of medieval field boundaries. One of the curvilinear banks partially corresponds with a curvilinear ditch recorded as part of field system MDV103495 during the earlier NMP survey. However it diverges considerably at the northern end, and the relationship between the two is not clear.
