Summary
ST 60 SW
ST 6050 0314 - 6119 0341
Two linear banked features are visible as earthworks on 1940s aerial photographs to the northeast of Frome Park Coppice, Frome St Quinton. The features are broadly parallel with a slight funnel shape at their southwest end. The northeast end ends at Long Ash Lane, opposite the entrance to the medieval drove road. The features may be a predecessor to, or a continuation of, the drove road where it opens out into a small coombe, formerly part of a medieval deer park (MDO1192). They were digitally plotted during the Dorset Upper Frome AIM project and are recorded under MDO43069.
