A field system of possible medieval date was visible as earthwork banks and ditches on aerial photograph RAF/V17/170/0072-3. The central transcriptions correspond to a database record of a field system of unknown to medieval date visible as earthworks. It is likely that the bank features transcribed to the north and ditches to the west and south were also part of this record.
