Two conjoined curvilinear earthwork ditches, up to circa 5 metres in width, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. They run cross-contour and could be natural or partly natural water channels, although they manifest in the same way as the remains of field boundaries depicted on the historic mapping, and could be field boundaries with a medieval or post-medieval origin that became disused by the mid-19th century.
