A pale curvilinear cropmark is visible on aerial photographs taken in 1999. No features are depicted on the Tithe map in this exact location, but a straight field boundary is depicted here on the late-19th century OS maps, although on a different alignment. It is interpreted as having formed over the remains of a medieval or post-medieval field boundary bank, which had fallen out of use by the mid-19th century.
