Possible Post Medieval mounds and boundaries may be associated with Post Medieval quarries or ponds. These features are visible as indistinct earthworks on aerial photographs. A square cutting is cut into the side of a mound which is probably the upcast from the pond or water filled quarry adjacent. Another mound appears to be set into this square cutting. These are centred at SS 9752 2514. Another mound also appears to be the upcast from another pond or water filled quarry to the south of those mentioned above. A boundary bank appears to extend over this mound. It is centred at SS 9765 2514. Possible boundaries associated with these features are situated, just to the east,
at SS 9750 2711.
