Possible former field boundaries of between medieval to post-medieval date are visible as a series of earthwork banks and ditches on aerial photographs of 1947 onwards, to the north of Windsor Farm. The linear earthworks are northeast to southwest aligned and are situated on, and parallel to, steep northwest facing slope. Two of the possible field boundaries comprise an earthwork ditch flanked by a bank. They are not depicted on the Parish Tithe map of approximately 1838-48, so had possibly passed out of use by this time. The earthworks are more clearly visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured in 2016.
