A linear earthwork ditch, circa 6 metres in width, is visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2005. It is of similar morphology to other earthworks in the vicinity that correspond to field boundaries depicted on the Tithe Map. The earthwork is therefore tentatively interpreted as the remains of a former field boundary, removed prior to the mid-19th century. Earthwork remains are likely to survive.
