Two dark linear cropmarks, circa 1.5 metres wide, are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1950. They are interpreted as having formed over buried ditches, possibly former enclosure boundaries of uncertain date. However they are not visible on any other available aerial imagery and interpretation is tentative.
