An earthwork pit, circa 45 by 30 metres in extent, is visible on aerial photographs from 1946, and on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. It is tentatively interpreted as one of several extraction pits in this area that became disused before the late-19th century, since no features are depicted here on the available historic maps.
