A curvilinear earthwork bank, circa 3 metres wide, is visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014, and is visible as a pale cropmark on aerial photographs taken from the 1940s onwards. It is tentatively interpreted as the relict remains of a former field boundary of medieval or post-medieval origin. It is not depicted on the available historic mapping and is likely to have fallen out of use by the mid-19th century.
