Cropmarks of possible medieval field boundaries or lynchets are visible on aerial photographs (S1-S2). These cropmarks were previously recorded as part of NHER 11775. Six linear ditch cropmarks are present on a roughly north to south alignment diagonally across a southwest facing slope. Three broad linear positive cropmarks are present in the eastern part of the group. They are spaced up to 21m apart and it is possible that they relate to medieval strip fields. Similar cropmarks have been recorded in the western part of Sedgeford parish (NHER 18237).
