Summary
Curvilinear earthwork banks, visible on lidar data captured between 2004 and 2013, are tentatively interpreted as the remains of medieval field boundaries that went out of use by the mid-19th century.

Broad earthworks, visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 2004 and 2013, could be geological features. However two conjoined curvilinear banks appear to fit into the surrounding field system as depicted on the 19th century mapping, with the east-west orientated bank apparently aligned with a boundary to the west, and crossing another boundary at a dog-leg at approximately SS2891609113. The north-south aligned section is parallel to extant curvilinear field boundary. The banks are tentatively interpreted as the remains of medieval field boundaries.
