Name: | Field system on Stallage Common, Ipplepen |
---|
Summary
Linear and curvilinear earthwork banks interpreted as relict field boundaries of a prehistoric or Romano-British field system, with associated evidence of settlement, are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1986 and on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, on a limestone plateau on Stallage Common, Ipplepen.

A series of linear and curvilinear earthwork banks, between 3-6m in width, is visible on aerial photographs taken in 1986 and on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, on a limestone plateau on Stallage Common, Ipplepen. The earthworks occupy an area of approximately 7 hectares, are typically northeast to southwest and northwest to southeast aligned and define several rectilinear shaped enclosures, from between 35 to 80m in length. A number of curvilinear and circular banked features and enclosures, up to 20m across, are also visible in association with the linear earthworks. The visible earthworks do not correspond with any features shown in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map which is shown as partly unenclosed land with the surrounding field patterns characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields. The form, character and setting of these earthworks supports the interpretation that they represent relict field boundaries of a possible prehistoric or Romano-British field system, with associated evidence of possible settlement. Earthworks are shown in this location on the Ordnance Survey 2018 MasterMap.
