Summary

The location of the former settlement of Little Aunk was visible on digital images derived from lidar data acquired in 2005 and 2010 as an earthwork platform to the north-east of Three Elms Cross. The settlement and associated buildings probably passed out of use between the 1840s and the 1880s.

The location of a former settlement was visible on digital images derived from lidar data acquired in 2005 and 2010 as an earthwork platform to the north-east of Three Elms Cross. The earthwork platform measured approximately 45 by 40 metres in size and probably corresponded with a farmhouse and courtyard depicted on the Tithe Map for Clyst St Lawrence and listed on the Tithe Apportionments as Little Aunk. The buildings are not depicted on the Ordnance Survey first edition 25inch map and therefore probably passed out of use between the 1840s and 1880s.
