A curvilinear earthwork bank, approximately 8 metres wide, is visible on visualisations of lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. It is not depicted on the available 19th century mapping but fits closely into the surrounding field pattern. It is interpreted as a relict medieval field boundary that went out of use by the mid-19th century.
