Summary
A hedgebank runs east-west for over 2km along the spine of raddon hills forming the boundary between the civil + ecclesiastical parishes of shobrooke to the south + stockleigh pomeroy to the north. The boundary lies between two manors recorded in domesday but may have been part of a large anglo-saxon monastic estate. Two possibly sequential linear features that lie on this alignment were found to cut the hillfort ditch (weddell).
