A mound, perhaps a small Bronze Age round barrow, is visible as an earthwork on aerial photographs (S1) and on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015 (S2). It is one of several mounds visible in this area, of which this is the most convincing as an archaeological feature. As the lidar survey was flown fairly recently, it is likely that the earthwork still survives.
