Two curvilinear ditches and a curvilinear bank are visible as very subtle parallel earthworks on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016. All the earthworks are north-east to south-west orientated and each approximately 10m in width. The earthworks do not correspond with any features depicted on historic maps. One of the ditches appears to align with a kink in a perpendicular field boundary to the north. The earthworks are interpreted as field boundaries of medieval to post-medieval origin, that passed out of use prior to circa 1840.
