A former field boundary of potential medieval date is visible as an earthwork bank on LiDAR images of between 2008-2012, at Park Farm. The earthwork is northeast to southwest aligned, measures approximately 6m wide and respects the existing and historical field boundaries. The earthwork may form part of a medieval strip field which passed out of use by the time of the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48.
