Summary
Earthworks of a T-shaped bank with possible corresponding ditch, 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 passed out of use by the mid-19th century.

Earthworks of a T-shaped bank with possible corresponding ditch, both circa 4m wide and northeast to southwest and northwest to southeast aligned, are visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013. The earthworks do not correspond with any features shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps, but are in keeping with the surrounding historic field pattern, which is characterised as post-medieval enclosures with medieval elements. The earthworks are therefore interpreted as relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century. The field boundaries truncate the earthworks of a possible medieval road.
