Monument record WRW 079 - Possible undated banks.

Please read our .

Summary

Three possible undated banks on various alignments are seen as earthworks on visualised lidar data. The banks are seen as low earthworks and it is possible that these features may have related to the possible Wordwell rabbit warren (WRW 043) to the north. It is also possible that these features may be natural in origin due to their alignment and how low the earthworks appear on the visualised lidar data. If the banks are archaeological in origin they may be Medieval – post medieval in date and are not recorded on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map.
