Comments on map:

Hampshire RO dates it c.1842: the London Brighton and South Coast Railway (c.1846-7) has been superimposed subsequently in red. Fields numbered: no reference available. This presumably derives from the tithe survey [Exeter 07863], but it cerainly differs cartographically: it might be a rating map, but the area top left which might have the telltale receipt stamps has been torn away.
