Two narrow parallel linear ditches, circa 4 metres apart, are visible as dark cropmarks on aerial photographs taken in 1967 and 2010. They are aligned cross-contour and were probably intended for land drainage in the post-medieval or modern period, although they may have been associated with a removed field boundary of earlier date.
