A pale linear cropmark, circa 2 metres wide, is visible on aerial photographs taken between 1989 and 2002. It may have formed over the remains of a field boundary bank, and the straight alignment suggests a post-medieval date. No field boundary is depicted in this location on the historic mapping, indicating that it passed out of use prior to the mid-19th century. Below-ground remains may survive.
