Curvilinear and linear earthwork banks, interpreted as relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date, are visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013. The field boundaries had partly fallen out of use by the mid-19th century.

Curvilinear and linear earthwork banks, circa 6m wide and northeast to southwest and northwest to southeast aligned, are visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013. The earthworks partly correspond with two field boundaries shown in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, although the remaining earthworks do not correspond with any such features on this map, or on later available historic maps. The surrounding historic field pattern is characterised as post-medieval enclosures. The earthworks are therefore interpreted as relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date which had partly fallen out of use by the mid-19th century.
