Narrow curvilinear features of possible earthwork ditches, circa 2m wide, are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1946 and digital images derived from aerial photographs taken in 2007. The possible ditches do not correspond with any curvilinear features in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps. They are interpreted as a possible post-medieval or 19th century trackway.
