Two curvilinear earthwork ditches, circa 2 metres in width, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. They are not depicted on the historic mapping, although they are in keeping with the surrounding field pattern which is characterised as enclosures based on medieval strip fields. They are tentatively interpreted as the remains of medieval field boundaries that became disused by the mid-19th century.
