A possible former field boundary of potential medieval date is visible as an earthwork bank on aerial photographs of 1976 and on LiDAR images between 1998-2012 at Wareham Point. The earthwork is northeast to southwest aligned, measures approximately 6m wide and is located across a moderately sloping hilltop. The boundary may be medieval in origin, although does not respect the historical field boundaries recorded on the parish tithe map.
