Fragmentary linear ditches of unknown date are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1)-(S2). They are most likely to be field boundaries, of medieval to post medieval date. Most follow a similar orientation as modern field boundaries, and those depicted on historic Ordnance Survey maps (S3); a non-archaeological origin is possible for others.
