Summary
Two linear earthwork banks are visible on aerial photographs taken between 1946 and 2007. Field boundaries are shown in this location on the 1844 Tithe map, but not the 1880s-1890s Ordnance Survey mapping. The features are interpreted as medieval or post-medieval field boundaries that became disused in the second half of the nineteenth century.

Two linear banks, approximately 2 to 3 metres wide, are visible as earthworks on aerial photographs taken between 1046 and 2007. Field boundaries are depicted in this location on the 1844 Tithe map, but not the 1880s-1890s Ordnance Survey mapping, suggesting that the banks are relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date that became disused in the second half of the nineteenth century.
