Summary

Three curvilinear ditches are visible as earthworks on images derived from lidar data captured in 2016 south-east of Goldacre Farm. Two ditches are orientated approximately north to south and are parallel to each other and adjacent field boundaries. A further double ditched linear feature is orientated approximately east to west and extends between the road junction to the east and wiers on the river to the west, first depicted on the First Edition OS map, with Goldacre Farm beyond. The ditches do not correspond to any features depicted on historic maps. Some mature trees are depicted following the path of the ditches on historic maps and aerial photographs.
The earthworks are interpreted as field boundaries of medieval to post-medieval origin, that passed out of use prior to circa 1840. The east to west orientated earthwork may be a trackway leading to the river or possibly crossing it.
