A Roman tile was found at SS83630034 in 1984 during construction of the new vicarage.

The earliest finds recorded during an excavation and watching brief undertaken in 1984 on the site of a new vicarage to the north of the churchyard were two residual pieces of Roman tile. They are not thought to indicate Roman occupation of the site but that they result from known Roman activity in the area. They are similar in fabric to those found at Crediton Villa.
