Monument record MDO44571 - Historic field boundaries, Luton Down, Tarrant Rawston
Please read our guidance about the use of Dorset Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Two linear banked featurs are visible as earthworks on Luton Down, Tarrant Rawston, on current Environment Agency lidar imagery. The features are considered likely to be historic field boundaries of probable medieval to post medieval date, although they are located within an area of later prehistoric field systems, so an earlier origin is also possible. The features were digitally plotted during the Dorset Middle Stour AIM project.
