A linear earthwork bank, circa 5m wide and northwest to southeast aligned, is visible on digital images derived from aerial photographs taken in 2002. The northwest extent of the earthwork corresponds with a field boundary shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, although the remaining extent had evidently passed out of use by this time. The historic field pattern depicted in this location is characterised as post-medieval enclosures, supporting the interpretation that the relict field boundary is of possible post-medieval date.
