Summary
Parallel linear earthwork banks, visible on aerial photographs taken from the 1940s onwards and on images derived from lidar data captured in 2005, correspond to an area depicted as orchard on the Tithe Map. They are interpreted as post-medieval or early-19th century tree planting banks.

Parallel linear earthwork banks, covering less than half a hectare and circa 4 metres wide, are visible on aerial photographs taken from 1946 onwards and on images derived from lidar data captured in 2005. Their location corresponds to a small field south-east of Kennford within which orchard trees are depicted on the Tithe map, although no trees are visible on aerial photographs taken in 2010. The earthworks are aligned broadly cross-contour, and are interpreted as tree planting banks of post-medieval or early-19th century date.
