Possible tree-planting banks of a former post-medieval to 19th century orchard are visible as a series of linear earthwork banks on digital images derived from lidar data captured in 2016, to the east of Hayne Farm. An orchard is depicted here on the Ordnance Survey First Edition map of between the 1880’s-90’s. Aerial photographs of 1947 show that the orchard remains largely covered with fruit trees, although by 1989, these have been partly cleared. The earthwork banks, on which the fruit trees were established, are not, however, clearly visible, although are clearly visible on lidar images. They are northwest to southeast aligned and occupy an area of approximately 0.26 hectares of gentle north facing slope.
