Curvilinear banks, circa 12 metres wide and orientated north-east to south-west, are visible as earthworks on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013.
The earthworks do not correspond with any 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 both medieval enclosures based on strip fields and as post-medieval enclosures.
The form of the earthworks supports the interpretation that they are two relict field boundaries of potential medieval date, that had been removed by the mid-19th century. Some caution should be exercised with regards to the northern earthwork, which may be geological in origin.
