A series of trackways are visible as earthworks on aerial photographs taken in 1947 running roughly north-south across heathland to the north east of Fir Grove Farm. The features are considered likely to be of post medieval or early 20th century date; they now lie under modern plantation. The features were digitally plotted during the Dorset Stour NMP.

They now lie under modern plantation and are no longer visible, no accessment could therefore be made as to the current condition of the monument (2).
