Aldro earthworks: a linear boundary, two cross-dykes and nine round barrows on Birdsall Wold

The National Heritage List for England records Aldro earthworks: a linear boundary, two cross-dykes and nine round barrows on Birdsall Wold as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Aldro earthworks on Birdsall Wold include a linear boundary, two cross-dykes, and nine round barrows, dating primarily to the early medieval period, though some features may be earlier. The site is associated with prehistoric land division and burial practices, and while no specific folklore is recorded, such earthworks were often later linked to local legends of hidden folk or ancient spirits.
