Haddrell, S., 2009, Pinhoe New Village, Devon, 8 (Report - Geophysical Survey). SDV344449.
Positive linear anomalies were identified in Area 2 during geophysical survey on land at Old Park Farm prior to development. The anomalies are possibly associated with former field boundaries. Other details: Figures 3-6 (2).

Excavation showed the anomaly to be a shallow, north-west-south-east orientated ditch with a flat base, u-shaped profile. The fill contained a single sherd of prehistoric gabbro pottery from The Lizard peninsular, Cornwall. The ditch was cut by a shallow pit.

Feature (37003) interpreted as an elongated pit rather than a ditch and which appears to relate to a short linear geophysical anomaly. The pit, which contained a sherd of prehistoric pottery, was cut by an undated tree throw pit (37005). Suggested that the pit may be related to tree clearance.
