A curvilinear earthwork bank, visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, is tentatively interpreted as the remains of a medieval field boundary that went out of use before the mid-19th century.

A curvilinear earthwork bank, up to approximately 5 metres wide, is visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017 to the south of Creek Beacon. It partly follows the contour, and it is possible that this is a geological feature. However it fits into the field pattern depicted on the 19th century maps that has been characterised as medieval in origin, with its eastern end perhaps joining an extant field boundary on the same alignment. It is not depicted on the Tithe map and is tentatively interpreted as a field boundary that went out of use before the mid-19th century.
