Earthworks, Harbourneford. Enclosure bank, very faint. A field to the south of the road running through Harbourneford shows very faint traces of a low bank when viewed in oblique light (it is well seen from the hill to the north east). This runs to right angles with the road, turns a right angle about 30 metres from the road and runs parallel to it to fade out after about another 40 metres. It is very low, turf covered bank with no stones showing, scarcely perceptible except in low light. It does not appear to be related to any field banks removed since the Tithe Map of 1843.
