The line of the parish boundary at Roundswell to the north of the A39 now crosses an area of industrial development. However, a large hedge is still visible running north-south from the southern end of Lauder Lane which appears to be the relict of a former field boundary which coincided with the parish boundary. The line is picked up in an extant field boundary to the south of the A39.

site visit 28th June 1984. Earthen bank circa 0.6 metres high and 0.9 metres wide on the line of the Fremington-Tawstock parish boundary (at SS54063154). There is a possible ditch, 1.0 metres wide on the west side although it has probably been recently recut.
