An earthwork bank of a former field boundary of potential medieval date is visible on aerial photographs of 1982 onwards, to the southeast of Walnut Cottage. The sinuous earthwork is northeast to southwest aligned and closely respects a former field boundary to the south depicted on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map, although appears to have passed out of use by this time. The digital Parish Tithe mosaic is incomplete for this area. The earthwork is visible on digital images derived from aerial photographs taken in 2014.
