Cropmarks of two phases of field systems, Eastwell Park, visible in the 1940s and 2006 aerial photos.
A later field system consisits of a series of linear and curvilinear features, visible on the 1940s aerial photos as earthworks though subsequently ploughed flat. The 2006 aerial photos show an earlier series of linear features, probably representing an earlier field system. The cropmarks are visible in aerial photographs dating from 1946 to 2017 (the latter being especially clear)
