Cropmarks which have formed over infilled ditches and levelled banks of field boundaries of unknown, but potential medieval, date are visible on aerial photographs.

Hegarty, C., Knight, S. and Sims, R., 2016, Backlog Recording of the Tamar Valley National Mapping Programme Survey (Personal Comment). SDV359374.

The dispersed group of cropmarks recorded here all appear to be attached to a single NMP database record and so have all been recorded as one monument. Only part of the photo reference is given in the transcription attributes, so the date of the photographs is not known.
