An earthwork of a low mound of unknown date and function is visible on aerial photographs (S1). This earthwork is located at TM 3261 9178. The mound is sub-oval in plan and measures 40m by 30m. A possible narrow ditch earthwork is present along part of its western edge. The date and function of this earthwork in uncertain. Its form and size suggest that it is unlikely to be a Bronze Age round barrow. The mound had been levelled and the field ploughed by 1984 (S2).
