A curvilinear feature, up to 9 metres wide, is visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2010. It is roughly parallel to an extant field boundary to the north and could possibly be a relict field boundary bank of medieval or post-medieval origin. As the area is wooded the ground surface here is not visible on any of the available aerial photographs and interpretation is tentative. No field boundary is depicted in this location on the historic mapping, and if this is a relict field boundary then it probably passed out of use prior to the mid-19th century.
