Linear earthwork banks, circa 9m in width, are visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, to the southwest of Dornafield Farm, Denbury and Torbryan. The earthworks are north to south aligned and likely form part of a single linear banked feature which has been bisected by a field boundary. They are broadly in keeping with the historic field pattern depicted in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map which is predominantly characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields, although they do not correspond with any linear features on this map, or on subsequent available historic maps. They are therefore interpreted as a possible relict field boundary of medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
