Summary
An irregularly shaped earthwork pit, interpreted as a possible post-medieval or early 19th century extractive pit, is visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2004 and 2013. The extractive pit had probably passed out of use by the mid to late 19th century.

An irregularly shaped pit, circa 33m long by 18m wide, is visible as an earthwork on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2004 and 2013. The visible earthwork does not correspond with any pit features depicted in this location on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps.
It is interpreted as a post-medieval or early 19th century extractive pit which had probably passed out of use by the mid to late 19th century.
