Two remaining sections of a hollow way system extant in and predating the South Pleasure Grounds of Cobham Hall. One section ran north from Lodge Lane, the former main route between Cobham and Strood. This section is 25m in length, 13.00 m wide and 1.10 m deep. This route predates Cobham Park, but probably continued in use as an approach to Cobham Hall. The second section is around 50.0m to the north and proabably represents a branch from the routeway and remains as a 60m long scarp some 0.9m high, aligned south east - north west [1]

Survey work in 1997 revealed several features (earthworks) - probably related to the construction of the park in the mid-late 16th century and modifications thereafter. A bank feature in the western part of the survey area may represent the original boundary marker which was later replaced by the iron fencing. The fencing may date either to the C18th or C19th. The ponds existed since the mid-C17th and have been modified since. (2)
