A curvilinear earthwork ditch, approximately 2.5 metres wide, is visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. It fits into the field pattern depicted on the 19th century maps, perhaps partly corresponding to the southern part of a small enclosure. It is not depicted on the Tithe map and any field boundary here in the medieval or post-medieval period probably went out of use before the mid-19th century.
