Full Description
Remains of a raised linear bank recorded by MAS during walkover survey in 2003 ahead of installation of a telecommunications mast. The back ran roughly east-west, measured circa 0.7 m wide and averaged circa 0.2 m in height, It incorporated some stones but was not an obviously collapsed stone dyke. It may be a lynchet. It appears to extend to but not into the area of rig and furrow to the west (NJ80NW0184) so may therefore be contemporary with this or possibly earlier.
