Field called Lynch on Tithe Map/Tithe Apportionment (Tithe Apportionment No. 2040). May refer to lynchet, or cultivation terrace of medieval date. Not visible on 1947 aerial photo. Documentary references to ploughland here in 1275 and 1288. SMR records that the land was 'Farweia' in Domesday, recorded as 'lands called Farway in Southleigh' . However, on the Tithe Map the field is shown within an outlier of Colyton parish.
