Summary

Fragmentary field boundaries of probable medieval to post medieval date are visible as low earthworks on visualised lidar data, from a survey flown in 2017. They are for the most part not depicted on readily accessible 19th century maps, but appear to fit the same general pattern of enclosure. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently, it is likely that the earthworks still survive.
