Full Description

Narrow ridge and furrow is visible as earthworks on aerial photographs taken in 1948 to the north and west of Middle Range Farm (1). The ploughed ridges were digitally plotted during the Marshwood Vale NMP. They are considered to be the remains of 19th century ploughing but a more recent origin is possible. The cultivation marks have since been partially levelled (2).
