Cropmarks which have formed over a levelled bank of a former field boundary of potential medieval date are visible on aerial photographs of 1944 and 1947, at Rosshayne Farm. The linear cropmark bank is northeast to southwest aligned and closely respects an historic field boundary to the west which is depicted on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map. The boundary recorded here, however, appears to have passed out of use by this time. The digital Tithe Map mosaic is also incomplete for this area.
