A U-shaped raised structure is visible on RAF 1946 (S1) aerial photographs. The two parallel sides appear to be 46m long and the central wall is 45m. The raised surface of the structure is 5.5m wide. It is possible that this is a military structure, probably dating to the World War Two, the function of which is unknown.
