Former field boundaries of potential medieval date are visible as earthwork ditches on aerial photographs of 1966 onwards, to the northeast of East Manley. The broad, linear earthworks measure up to 24m in width and are northwest to southeast and northeast to southwest aligned. The former field boundaries may form part of a medieval field system, although the ditches appear to have largely passed out of use by the time of the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48. Other parallel earthwork ditches were also visible on aerial photographs and digital images within the surrounding area, although since they are depicted on the parish tithe map, were not transcribed as part of this survey. The earthworks remain visible on digital images derived from Lidar data captured between 2005 and 2010.
