Two parallel north to south orientated curvilinear banks are visible as earthworks on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016. They do not correspond with any features depicted on historic maps, but extend from a curving perpendicular field boundary to the north depicted on the Tithe Map. The banks are interpreted as field boundaries of medieval to post-medieval origin, that passed out of use prior to circa 1840.
