An extraction pit of between medieval to 19th century date is visible as an earthwork pit on aerial photographs of 1947 onwards, to the southeast of Oaklands. The sub-oval shaped earthwork measures approximately 46m in length by 38m in width and is located within the site of a former orchard depicted on the Ordnance Survey First Edition map of between the 1880’s-90’s, the orchard likely being established here following the abandonment of the extraction pit. The earthwork pit remains visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured in 2016.
