Three possible north-south aligned cropmarks to the east of Goldenpark Farm, Hartland, centred on circa SS23412000, SS23522000 and SS23662000 might be forming over former field boundaries or drains of probable post-medieval date. The cropmarks are very straight and narrow and are probably forming over the ditch and former bank of grubbed up modern boundaries, the line of field drains. No boundaries are depicted in this location on either the Ordnance Survey first edition 25inch series map of circa 1885 or the Hartland Tithe Map of circa 1842. this might support the interpretation that if boundaries, they were removed by the first half of the 19th century.
