Coaxial field systems and associated later remains between Deckler's Cliff and Gammon Head is a prehistoric and later landscape monument located in Devon. The site preserves evidence of ancient field organisation in the form of coaxial field systems, a distinctive pattern of linear boundaries arranged in parallel sets that reflect early agrarian land division practices. Such systems are characteristic of Bronze Age and Iron Age agricultural exploitation in south-western Britain and demonstrate the development of organised land management across the landscape. The monument also contains later structural remains indicative of continued settlement and use of this coastal area into subsequent periods.
