Five slight curvilinear earthwork banks, up to 10 metres wide, are visible on visualisations of lidar data captured in between 1998 and 2017. They fit into the field pattern, and one to the east of the farm terminates at the corner of an extant field. They are interpreted as relict medieval boundaries. No features are depicted in this location on the available historic maps, indicating that any boundaries here probably went out of use by the mid-19th century.
