Summary
Linear earthwork banks, indistinctly visible on aerial photographs taken from 1947 and on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014, are interpreted as tree planting banks for a post-medieval to 19th century orchard that went out of use in the 20th century.

Parallel linear earthwork banks are indistinctly visible on aerial photographs taken from 1947 and on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. Their broadly cross-contour orientation is indicative of post-medieval or 19th century tree planting banks, and this plot of land was recorded as orchard in the Tithe apportionment and depicted with orchard trees on the late-19th century OS mapping.
