Three curvilinear earthwork ditches, between approximately 4 and 8 metres wide, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2013. No boundaries are depicted in their exact locations on the available historic mapping, although they fit into the extant field pattern as depicted on the Tithe maps. Two are broad and shallow, and they are not visible on other available aerial imagery, so they are only tentatively interpreted as the remains of medieval field boundaries that went out of use by the mid-19th century.
