Monument record MWX43584 - Earthworks north of sewage works at Little Downs Bridge, near Sandwich

Summary

Earthworks of two probable haystack stances and boundary banks are visible as earthworks on 1940s aerial photographs. The banks may be a previously recorded part of the mapped field system, itself of probable post-medieval in date, as they share similar alignments to adjacent boundaries. Examination of recent aerial photography indicates that these features appear to have since been plough-levelled.
