Two conjoined rectilinear platforms circa 30 to 35 metres long and 30 metres wide are visible on aerial photographs of 2000 and digital images derived from lidar data captured from 1998 to 2014, on the west-facing slopes east of Trebblehayes Farm. The platforms fall within a plot depicted as an orchard on the 19th century maps available to the survey. They are therefore probably the remains of features that passed out of use prior to the mid-19th century. They might be evidence of former infield enclosures or building terraces associated with the medieval farmstead at Trebblehayes.
