An irregularly shaped pit, circa 22 meters long by 15 meters wide, is visible as an earthwork on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2007.
The pit does not correspond with any features on the late 19th century First Edition Ordnance Survey map, or on later available historic maps, although an earthwork is depicted in this location on the 2021 Ordnance Survey MasterMap.
It is interpreted as a post-medieval or 19th century extractive pit that had probably passed out of use by the late 19th century.
It is not visible on other available aerial imagery owing to thick tree cover.
Ordnance Survey, 2021, MasterMap 2021 (Cartographic). SDV364015.
The pit closely corresponds with an earthwork.
