Two linear earthwork banks, circa 6m wide and northeast to southwest aligned, are visible on digital images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. The earthworks do not correspond with any linear features shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps, although an orchard is shown in this location. They are of uncertain origin, but may represent relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date, or else 19th century tree planting banks of the former orchard.
