Summary

Cropmarks of field boundaries or incomplete enclosures of unknown date are visible on aerial photographs. A curving linear ditch cropmark is present on a southwest to northeast alignment. The alignment of these cropmarks does not conform to that of the post medieval field pattern. It is likely that these ditches relate to field boundaries or part of a large enclosure but their date is uncertain.
