Summary
Three curvilinear earthwork banks and an arc of pale cropmarks, visible respectively on lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017 and aerial photographs taken in 1983, are interpreted as the remains of field boundaries that went out of use by the mid-19th century.

Three curvilinear earthwork banks, between 2 and 8 metres in width, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2017. A broad irregular arc of pale cropmarks immediately to the west, visible on aerial photographs taken in 1983, could be the levelled remains of a continuation of one of the banks. None are depicted on the available historic mapping, and they are interpreted as the remains of field boundaries that pre-date the Tithe map and presumably went out of use by the mid-19th century.
