To the NE, a set of terraced fields are preserved as earthworks in the now much larger modern field lay out. In the triangle of land between the roads, massive "ridge and furrow" runs NW-SE. This has a wavelength of 40m (20m wide ridges and furrows). It predates the modern A612. It can be seen in the verges on both sides, and beyond in the arable field. Interestingly, the ridges appear to curve round to meet each other in a butt end. Two "ridges" and the separating "furrow" may also be found in the far NE. Other less clear examples of this type of earthwork have been identified at Widmerpool and Gedling. Ridge and furrow and a terraced area are present to the SW. (1)
