Summary

Fragmented sections of earthwork bank, possibly post medieval in date are seen as earthworks on visualised lidar data. The sections of bank may have formed two banks aligned approximately east-west. The northern bank can be seen as a boundary on the Frist and Second edition Ordnance Survey (OS) maps and the southern bank may relate to a former trackway mapped on the Frist Edition OS or a boundary bank. These banks may relate to Lynford hall (NHER 5150) and Park (NHER 30470) in close proximity to the south.
