Full Description

Potential site of a trackway of uncertain date, visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs. The feature is very straight and can be seen for over 700m. The possibility that it is the line of a modern pipeline cannot be ruled out. It appears to be on the same alignment as the possible trackway described in MDO21625. {1-3}
