Monument record MWX43153 - Possible floodbanking, Stourmouth Valley
Summary
Parallel banks are visible as earthworks on 1940s aerial photographs. They appear to continue the alignment of flood banking recorded on early Ordinance Survey maps and probably represent a contemporary, but unmapped, element of this scheme, itself of probable medieval or post-medieval date. Examination of modern aerial photographs indicates that these features have been levelled.
