Five parallel curvilinear earthwork banks, between 3 and 5 metres in width and approximately 10 metres apart and aligned approximately south-west to north-east, are visible on aerial photographs taken between 1946 and 1999. Field boundaries are not depicted on the 1880s-1890s Ordnance Survey mapping, and the banks are probably part of a relict medieval strip field system. They are likely to survive as earthworks.
