Summary
Two curvilinear banks, interpreted as relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date, are visible as earthworks on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2004 and 2013. The field boundaries had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.

Two curvilinear banks, both circa 5m wide and northeast to southwest aligned, are visible as earthworks on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2004 and 2013.
The earthworks do not correspond with any curvilinear features shown in this location 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 rough ground.
The form of the earthworks supports the interpretation that they are relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
