This is the site of earthworks noted by G. Knocker from RAF aerial photographs and suggested as Early Saxon houses; but more likely modern drainage or medieval tofts.

The earthworks described above as possible Early Saxon houses, medieval tofts or modern drainage ditches have been mapped as part of the National Mapping Programme and are recorded separately as NHER 57436. They are considered most likely to represent post medieval drainage ditches.
