Curvilinear earthworks of banks and a ditch, interpreted as relict field boundaries of a possible field system, are visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013. The field boundaries had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.

Curvilinear earthworks of banks and a ditch, circa 7m 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 curvilinear 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 medieval enclosures based on strip fields. The earthworks are therefore interpreted as relict field boundaries of a possible medieval field system which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
