A former field boundary of potential medieval date is visible as a cropmark ditch on aerial photographs of 1969, to the northwest of Lower Halsdon Farm. The partial former field boundary is northeast to southwest aligned and extends southwesterly from a trackway which leads towards a farmstead recorded as being of potential medieval date. The farmstead is located approximately 70m to the north and is depicted on the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48. The former field boundary appears to respect the historic field patterns and may have formed part of a medieval field system associated with this former farmstead. The boundary ditch was not clearly visible on other aerial photographs or digital images made available to the survey.
