Two linear earthwork banks, up to approximately 2.5 metres wide, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2013. They fit into the system of narrow fields depicted on the historic mapping, and are interpreted as the remains of medieval field boundaries. Only those features that are not depicted on the historic mapping have been transcribed, and these are elements of the field system that are likely to have fallen out of use by the mid-19th century.
