An earthwork formed of intermittent stretches of slight bank and ditch is visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016. It crosses the road and several hedgerows, and is generally straight, with a few sharp changes in direction, as might be expected of a modern service trench. Consultation of the full range of hard copy aerial photographs might help to confirm this.
