A possible ditched boundary of unknown is visible on aerial photographs of 1945 as a linear cropmarks on a north-east facing slope immediately to the north-west of Home Down Barn, Otterton. The cropmark is roughly 2.5 metres wide and visible for distance of circa 95 metres. It does not correspond with any boundaries depicted on the tithe map for Otterton and is therefore likely to have passed out of use prior to the early19th century. The cropmark has not been recorded from any other aerial photographs available to the survey.
