A T-shaped earthwork bank, up to 6 metres in width, is visible on aerial photographs taken from 2010 and on images derived from lidar data captured in 2006. The plot of land is symbolised with orchard trees on late-19th century mapping, and the ground surface is obscured by tree cover on the 1940s aerial photographs. The banks are interpreted as infield boundaries associated with Worthy, predating the orchard and therefor having a potentially medieval or post-medieval origin.
