The curvilinear earthwork is northeast to southwest aligned and is situated on gentle to moderate northeast facing slope. The earthwork may form part of a medieval field boundary which passed out of use by the time of the Parish Tithe Map of approximately 1838-48. The earthwork bank remains visible on digital images captured in 2002.
