Linear banks of a single linear feature, circa 4m wide and parallel to the southeast facing slope, is visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. The earthworks do not correspond with any linear features shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps, nor are they obviously in keeping with the surrounding historic field pattern, which is characterised as post-medieval enclosures with medieval elements. The earthworks are of largely uncertain origin, although may represent a relict field boundary of medieval or post-medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century, or else are associated with adjacent catch meadow MDV127626.
