Summary

Several curvilinear banks and ditches are visible as earthworks on aerial photographs taken from 1989 and on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016. They are interpreted as relict medieval field boundaries, some of which had fallen out of use by the mid-19th century.

Several curvilinear banks and ditches are visible as earthworks on aerial photographs taken in 1989 and as earthworks on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016. Some are depicted as field boundaries on the available historic maps, but other sections are not and these probably went out of use by the mid-19th century. Only those earthworks that do not correspond with mapped field boundaries have been transcribed as part of this project.
