Linear earthwork ditches or gulleys visible on images derived from lidar data of 2005 and 2012to the north-west of Greenslinch Barton might be the earthwork remains of removed field boundaries potentially of medieval date. The earthworks defined a T-shaped junction within what is depicted as an orchard on both the tithe map for Silverton and the Ordnance Survey first edition map of the 1880s. It is therefore likely that the earthworks define features that passed out of use some time prior to the 1840s.
