Two earthwork mounds are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1945 and correspond to a windpump marked and depicted as a rectilinear enclosure on early-20th century maps. The earthworks do not appear to survive, although a pale cropmark is visible here on aerial photographs taken in 2007 indicating that below-ground remains survive.
