Three linear cropmarks of parallel ditched features are visible on DAP aerial photographs of 1989. The cropmarks are between one and three metres wide, spaced about four metres apart and are visible for distances of between forty and sixty metres on the north-west facing slopes of a spur, immediately north-east of Langdon Road, north of Dawlish. The date and function of the ditched features are uncertain but they might be boundary ditches of later prehistoric to Roman date, potentially associated with a possible enclosure located towards the tip of the spur immediately to the north-east.
