A desk-based assessment completed by the Cambridgeshire County Council's Archaeology Field Unit recorded earthworks in Joyden's Wood. Only partially visible as an irregular earthwork beneath thick undergrowth. The dimensions of the earthwork are estimates of 4m in diameter. It is located close to the field boundary/lynchet earthworks and may be directly associated with these. It is potentially part of a small rural settlement (Iron Age/Romano-British?) (1)
