Potential Medieval enclosures and boundaries, possibly associated with the settlement referred to by authority 1, were seen as earthworks and mapped from poor quality air photographs. They have been ploughed and are now visible as cropmarks. Three partially visible, conjoined rectilinear ditched enclosures, measuring on average 90m by 35m, are centred at SK 8689 3795. Just to the north are perpendicular boundary ditches, 220m long, centred at SK 8672 3818. No signs of buildings or tofts were visible in the vicinity and the air photographs were too poor to say if the features visible do relate to settlement. (Morph No. LI.721.16.1-2)
