Linear and curvilinear earthwork ditches, interpreted as water channels of ‘unknown medieval’ date, were transcribed from aerial photographs RAF/CPE/UK/2501/4111-2. The ditches correspond to a database record of a linear field system to the east of Devon and Courtenay Mine.

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

The aerial photograph reference given in the Tamar Valley NMP transcription attributes is incomplete; the date of the photograph is not included.
The channels were probably drains and water channels of natural origin.
