Two small areas of broad rig and a larger field of narrow rig have been identified from oblique aerial views taken in 2008 (RCAHMSAP 2008). The two small areas of rig lie in a traingular piece of ground immediately N of the lower water filled quarry (NS96SW 62), whilst the larger area is within a sub-square field immediately E of this quarry.
