Several linear and curvilinear ditched features, possibly field boundaries of prehistoric date, are visible on aerial photographs as cropmarks of to the north-west of Garlandhayes Farm. The linear features might be associated with evidence of prehistoric settlement in the form of a D-shaped enclosure, a large circular enclosure and a smaller ring ditch also visible as cropmarks in this area, although the relationship between the individual elements is unclear and several phases of activity are probably visible.
