A hollow way is visible as linear earthworks on LiDAR data. It formerly linked the trackway running south from the lane to a building that stood against the western boundary of a field above Hanging Hill Wood.

It is also noticeable that it leads into an enclosure which is also visible as earthworks. The field boundary referred to above can also be seen.
