Summary

Probable post medieval field boundaries and/or drains are visible as cropmarks and low earthworks on aerial photographs and visualised lidar data. Other, similar features visible in the same field on the same sources correspond with field boundaries depicted on 19th-century maps and are not included in the record. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently (2017), it is likely that any earthworks still survive.
