Monument record IKL 346 - Probable post medieval boundary bank.

Please read our .

Summary

A probable post medieval boundary bank is seen as an earthwork (which has since been levelled) on aerial photographs. The bank is aligned approximately north east - south west and is in close proximity to further post medieval boundary banks to the east (IKL 348) and a group of Bronze Age barrows to the west (IKL 004 and IKL 005). The bank can be seen as an earthwork in the 1940s and is presumed to have been levelled as the feature is not visible on recent (2016) aerial photographs.
