A possible former field boundary of between medieval to post-medieval date is visible as an earthwork ditch on digital images derived from lidar data captured in 2016, to the west of Nichol’s Reeds plantation. The earthwork ditch is northwest to southeast aligned and generally respects the historic field patterns depicted here on the Parish Tithe map of 1838-48, although the field boundary appears to have passed out of use by this time. The nature of this earthwork should be viewed with some caution and it is possible it is the result of modern cultivation. It was, however, recorded since it lies in close proximity, and is similar in nature to, an earthwork ditch on its eastern side which is depicted as a field boundary on the Parish Tithe map. The possible relict field boundary was not visible on aerial photographs or other digital images made available to the survey.
