Full description

Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Maps and Apportionments (Website). SDV349463.

Plot 1297 is recorded as 'Quarry Park' and plot 1298 is recorded as 'Wood in Quarry Park' within the Yealmpton Tithe Apportionment.

Pink, F., 2014, South Devon Coast Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey Desk-Based Assessment (Interpretation). SDV357736.

Plot 1297 on the Yealmpton Tithe Map of 1843 is recorded as 'Quarry Park' and the adjacent plot 1298 to the west is recorded as 'Wood in Quarry Park' within the Tithe Apportionment. No quarries are illustrated in this location on the Tithe Map, and the field names are therefore likely to refer to the Slate Quarry on Kitley Quay, located directly to the west.
