A linear earthwork bank is visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016. It appears to connect the farmstead at Coombehayes with a gap in a water channel depicted on the late-19th century mapping at approximately SY1633998993, and is interpreted as a post-medieval or 19th century trackway, perhaps causewayed.
