Earthworks of two linear ditches, with a bank that flanks the northern ditch, are visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013. The earthworks measure between 8m and 12m wide and are northwest to southeast aligned. The northern ditch and bank partly correspond with a linear feature shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, although the ditch to the south does not correspond with any features on this map, or on later available historic maps. The earthworks are interpreted as relict ditch and ditch and banked field boundaries of potential medieval date which had partly fallen out of use by the mid-19th century. The earthworks are not clearly visible on other available aerial imagery.
