What is recorded here

On level, pasture. A trackway (Wth 2-3m) is defined by parallel, grassed-over earthen banks (Wth at base 3-4.5m; H 0.6-1.2m) and is traceable for c. 45m running ENE-WSW, and apparently leads to a now derelict lodge at the fork of the nearby main road. Appears to be of 18th/19th century in date.
