Summary

Two closely parallel narrow curvilinear banks are visible as earthworks on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2005 and 2013 immediately north of Hardicott Cottage. The banks are interpreted as flanking a possible trackway or pathway of post-medieval to early 20th century origin.

Two closely parallel narrow curvilinear banks between circa 3 and 5 metres in width are visible as earthworks on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2005 and 2013. The banks are orientated approximately north to south in an east facing field immediately north of Hardicott Cottage.
The banks do not correspond with any features depicted on the available historic maps. They appear to lead to a plot recorded as a cottage garden in the Tithe Apportionment. A path is depicted to the north traversing around a fishpond to the west on the Ordnance Survey 25-inch Second Edition map.
The banks are interpreted as flanking a possible trackway or pathway of post-medieval to early 20th century origin.
