The circular banked feature recorded in the 1990s is visible on aerial photographs taken in 1946 as a tree-covered earthwork mound. A circular enclosure is depicted with a dashed line in this location on the tithe map, but only two mature trees are depicted on the late-19th century OS map. It seems most likely to be a parkland feature, part of the post-medieval designed landscape at Pound.
