Summary

A linear earthwork bank is visible on aerial photographs taken between 1946 and 1959. No field boundary is depicted in this location on the 1844 Tithe map, and this may be a relict medieval field boundary that fell into disuse before the mid-nineteenth century. The bank is not visible on any available later aerial photographs and may have been levelled.
