Sims, R., Knight, S. & Houghton, E., 2020-2021, East Devon AONB Lidar Assessment and Desk based Assessment (Interpretation). SDV363914.

Two subtle parallel curvilinear banks are visible as earthworks on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2016 northwest of Lovehayne Farm. The banks are circa 6m in width and 30m apart and orientated approximately north to south. They do not correspond with any features depicted on historic maps. A fragment of medieval strip field system is recorded to the south (MDV131321). The banks are interpreted as medieval field boundaries that probably formed part of a strip field system, and that passed out of use prior to circa 1840.
