Two curvilinear earthwork banks, circa 3.5 metres wide, are visible on aerial photographs taken from 1946 onwards and on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. They are interpreted as relict field boundaries; their curvilinear shape indicates a likely medieval origin. They are not depicted on the mid-19th century Tithe map, and probably therefore went out of use by the mid-19th century.
