A linear earthwork bank, up to 5 metres in width, is visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. It manifests in the same way as earthworks immediately to the west that correspond to field boundaries depicted on the historic mapping. It is interpreted as the remains of a medieval or post-medieval field boundary which, as it is not depicted on the historic mapping, went out of use by the mid-19th century.
