A post medieval sand or gravel pit is visible on historic aerial photographs and remote sensing data as a levelled earthwork and was mapped as part of the North Buckinghamshire Aerial Investigation and Mapping project (EBC18304).

The pit is not recorded on historic editions of the OS maps. Recent remote sensing data shows that the pit has been infilled and levelled, but its outline is still visible (1-2).
