Possible former field boundaries of between medieval to 19th century date are visible as earthwork banked features on aerial photographs of 1948, at Cockhayes. The two earthworks comprise a single linear and single L-shaped bank and appear to have passed out of use by the time of the Parish Tithe map of 1838-48. They are not clearly visible on other aerial photographs or digital images made available to the survey and may have since been completely levelled.
