Earthwork banks of uncertain date and function are visible on aerial photographs of 1948 onwards, to the southeast of Bollhayes Park. The slight curvilinear earthwork is broadly northeast to southwest aligned and has possibly been dissected by, and so post-dates, a north to south aligned field boundary. The earthworks are sited on gentle north facing slope. Slight traces of the earthwork banks are possibly visible on aerial photographs of 1989.
