The English Heritage survey of Stowe undertaken in 2001 notes three banks in the field SW of the Conduit House. One bank runs N-S for 340m. A second runs E-W for 75m. Both these overlay the ridge and furrow, have a sharp appearance and are 1.5m wide x 0.5m high. The third is less distinct and runs for 80m NE-SW. The boundaries appear on 1946 aerial photographs. The longest is still in existence in 1977 aerial photographs (3).
