Linear earthwork ditches, between 8m to 12m in width, are visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, at Waterford Cross, Broadhempston. The earthworks are northwest to southeast and northeast to southwest aligned and are in keeping with the historic field pattern depicted in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map which is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields. Some of the ditches correspond with field boundaries on this map, although most of the earthworks do not. They are therefore interpreted as relict medieval or post-medieval field boundaries which had almost completely passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
