Possible former field boundaries of potential medieval date are visible as cropmark ditches, cropmark bank and earthwork ditch on aerial photographs of 1946 onwards, to the northwest of Greenway Bridge. The linear northeast to southwest aligned features closely respect the historic field patterns based on medieval strip enclosures and depicted on the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48, although the former field boundaries appear to have passed out of use by this time. Other cropmarks of former field boundaries were also visible on aerial photographs, although since they are depicted on historical mapping were not transcribed as part of this survey. The former cropmarks are intermittently visible on aerial photographs after 1946, with the northern most field boundary also visible as a slight earthwork ditch on Lidar images of between 2005 and 2010.
