A series of cropmarks which have formed over infilled ditches of potential medieval field boundaries are visible on aerial photographs of 1989 and digital images of 2010 and 2014.The cropmarks are all visible on different sources and comprise linear and curvilinear ditches typically northwest to southeast aligned and occupying an area of approximately 4 hectares of gentle to moderate southeast facing slope. Two of the field boundaries to the far north are depicted on the Parish Tithe Map of approximately 1838-48, although the remaining boundaries appear to have passed out of use by this time. The Historic Landscape Characterisation project records this area as comprising ‘Medieval enclosures’ and ‘Medieval enclosures based on strip fields’. The cropmarks may be associated with features identified in the area as monument record MDV47506.
