Monument record MWX43228 - Boundary feature, Monkton Marshes

Summary

A boundary bank is visible as an earthwork on 1940s aerial photographs. It is discontinuous and follows a generally sinuous W-E alignment, running for a total of 280m. The bank appears to have been plough-levelled as recent aerial photography shows it as a cropmark. The feature lies close to the salting and moated site at Docker Hill and may be related this complex, see Related Monuments.
