Two curvilinear banks between 3 and 8 metres in width and orientated approximately north-east to south-west are visible as earthworks on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2005 and 2013. The banks are situated in a south-west facing field west of Dunterton Glebe.
One of the banks partially corresponds to a field boundary depicted on the Tithe Map and aligns with a further field boundary depicted to the north. The historic landscape is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields.
The banks are interpreted as medieval to post-medieval field boundaries that passed out of use prior to circa 1840.
