Curvilinear earthwork banks, between 4m to 8m wide 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 and post-medieval enclosures with medieval elements. The earthworks are therefore interpreted as relict field boundaries of potential medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
