A rectilinear earthwork bank recorded from aerial photographs is likely to be the relict remains of a field boundary depicted on historic mapping at ST792301847, which has since been removed. It is visible as a roughly right-angled earthwork bank circa 2.5 metres wide on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. As it is depicted on the historic mapping it has not been transcribed as part of this project.
