Abstract:		 The results of a heritage and archaeological assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. for land at Killington Farm, Parracombe, Exmoor, as part of a pre-determination submission in advance of the proposed installation of a telecommunications mast, substation and associated works. The proposed site lies within the parish of St. Petrock of Parracombe in the historic Hundred of Shirwell. The site lies on the southern edge of what was once an area of unenclosed moorland called South Down, most of which is now attached to the former hamlet of Killington. The Down contains the remains of an extensive relict fieldsystem of probable medieval date; former hedgebanks within this system were used to define the parish boundary between Martinhoe and Parracombe. North-east of the site stands Beacon Castle, an Iron Age univallate enclosure associated with a second, less well-defined enclosure and possible hut circles. A large block of fields to the south of the Down were listed as Newberries in 1840, the berries/burh place-name probably referencing the Iron Age enclosure above.
