Three earthwork pits, the largest circa 40 metres across, are visible on digital images visualised from photogrammetrically derived elevation data captured in 2014. They are located in a field named ‘Pit Close’ in the Tithe Apportionment, although the larger may extend slightly into the field immediately to the west, and are interpreted as post-medieval or early modern extractive pits.
