Full description

Exeter Archaeology, 2004, Archaeological Assessment of Proposed Golf Course at Kigbeare Manor Farm, Southcott, Okehampton, 5 (Report - Assessment). SDV321807.

Although discontinuous where a stream cuts across it, this possible medieval boundary (from SX53579646 to SX54129624) may have continued beyond it, perhaps forming a D-shaped enclosure around the original manor house site. It may have formed the boundary of the enclosed land around the settlement.
