A linear earthwork bank, circa 12m wide and northeast to southwest aligned, is visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. The earthwork does not correspond with any linear features shown in this location on the late 19th century Ordnance Survey First Edition map but is closely in keeping with the historic field pattern depicted in this location and characterised as Barton fields. The earthwork is therefore interpreted as a relict field boundary of medieval or post-medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid to late-19th century.
