Summary
Two curvilinear earthwork ditches, visible on aerial photographs taken in 1999 and on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, are interpreted as the remains of medieval field boundary banks that had fallen out of use by the mid-19th century.

Two curvilinear earthwork ditches, circa 2 metres wide, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017 and aerial photographs taken in 1999. They fit into the surrounding field system and one appears to align with slight kinks in field boundaries depicted on the tithe maps to the north-east and south-west. They manifest in same way as removed boundaries that are depicted on the historic maps and their curvilinear shape indicates a likely medieval origin. They are not depicted on the tithe maps and are likely to have gone out of use by the mid-19th century.
