These banks match the lost field boundaries, as depicted on the Tithe Map; apart from the second bank recorded which is not shown on the Tithe Map but almost aligns with the field system and may represent a division already lost by the time the Map was drawn.
Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.
The northern and southern of the boundaries referred to in the 1985 project are depicted on the late 19th century historic map. Further field boundaries shown on this map have since been lost.

Field system comprising three banks (identified from the Royal Air Force 1946 aerial photograph) which extend across existing fields, one from SX74486813 to SX74326803 being 200 metres in length, second one extends from SX74366792 to SX74236791 for 125 metres in length and third extends from SX74186784 to SX74336783 for 200 metres in length.

Area to the west of the farm between the track and the River Dart is now woodland; the Tithe and late 19th century historic maps show most of this to have been farmland.
