Summary

Earthworks of linear banks, interpreted as relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date, are visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2007 and 2013. The field boundaries had likely passed out of use by the late 19th century.

Earthworks of two contiguous linear banks, circa 6 metres wide and orientated north-east to south-west and north-west to south-east, are visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2007 and 2013.
The earthworks do not correspond with any features shown in this location on the late-19th century Ordnance Survey First Edition map but are in keeping with the surrounding historic field pattern, which is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields.
They are interpreted as possible relict field boundaries of medieval or post-medieval date that had been removed by the late 19th century.
