Summary
A linear earthwork bank, interpreted as a relict field boundary of potential medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century, is visible on aerial photographs taken from 1946 onwards and on visualisations derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017.

A linear earthwork bank, circa 5m wide and north to south aligned, is visible on aerial photographs taken from 1946 onwards and on visualisations derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. The earthwork does not correspond with any linear features shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps, but is in keeping with the historic field pattern depicted in this location, which is characterised as medieval enclosures. The earthwork is therefore interpreted as a relict field boundary of potential medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
