A curvilinear earthwork bank, circa 2.5 metres in width, is indistinctly visible on aerial photographs taken from 1947 onwards and more clearly on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. Its curvilinear form is consistent with an interpretation as a relict field boundary of medieval origin. It is not depicted on the available historic mapping, suggesting that it fell out of use prior to the mid-19th century.
