A ditch, probably used as a boundary, of unknown date located in Kingsdown and visible on aerial photographs taken in 2007 [1]. The ditch was visible across two arable fields, broken by the existing field division, as an early germinating crop. It was not in line with any field boundaries as shown on historic mapping dating to 1938 [2], 1908 [3], 1899 [4] or 1876 [5]. The ditch was broken by a road, but ranges between 3m and 1m wide along its 210m length (including the break). The site lies within an area of similarly levelled earthworks.
