A north to south orientated curvilinear ditch is visible as an earthwork on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016. The earthwork does not correspond with any features depicted on historic maps, but is parallel to adjacent depicted boundaries. The historic landscape is characterised as 'medieval enclosures'. The ditch is interpreted as a medieval to post-medieval field boundary that passed out of use prior to circa 1840.
