Earthwork ditches of relict field boundaries, circa 8m wide, are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1946 and digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017, to the west of Culverhouse Combe, Hennock. The linear and T-shaped earthworks partly correspond with field boundaries shown in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, although had evidently largely passed out of use by this time. The surrounding historic field pattern is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields, which supports a medieval origin of the two field boundaries, with a possible post-medieval date for the north to south aligned section of the T-shaped field boundary.
