Earthwork remains of tofts and crofts lie either side of a central village green and in some places stone footings of buildings within the tofts remain visible, with earthworks up to 0.4m high. To the west is a large curvilinear bank separating the village from the ridge and furrow open fields. West of this bank are 3 ridges measuring 8m wide, with the ridges beyond a uniform 4m wide. Little is known about the history of this site. [Scheduled].
