Several linear earthwork ditch and bank features visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2010 are interpreted as defining possible former field boundaries of possible medieval or post-medieval date, to the north-east of Champerhaies. The earthwork features define a possible rectilinear field on the east bank of the River Culm. The possible relict boundaries sit comfortably within the enclosure pattern as depicted on the Tithe Map for ? and the Ordnance Survey first edition 25inch map, and might therefore have formed part of a the field system that passed out of use prior to the 1840s.
