Earthwork enclosures and field systems located 430 metres north east of Lower Well Farm is an ancient monument comprising agricultural remains of Iron Age date. The site consists of a series of ditched enclosures and associated field boundaries preserved as earthwork features across the landscape. Such enclosed field systems are characteristic of the later prehistoric period in Devon, reflecting the organisation of settlement and agricultural land use during the Iron Age.
