The late 19th century historic map (and preceding 1840s Tithe Maps) indicate the former field boundaries have already been removed by this time.

The lidar data reveals a former north-south boundary dividing this field into two sections. There also appears to be the remains of ridge and furrow within these fields, running east-west. The present east-west divisions of the field appear relatively recent (not visible on the aerial images pre-2015).
