Monument record MWX43110 - Boundary earthworks, Wickhambreaux Valley

Summary

Shallow earthworks of boundary features, demarking a small enclosure, are visible on 1940s aerial photographs. They appear derive from field systems created from land reclaimed from the Wantsum Channel between the 11th and 18th centuries, possibly predate the current field layout due to their differing alignment.
