Full Description
August 2014. Breaking New Ground field visit. HA 22.
An earthwork bank, visible in places beneath dense bracken. Up to 4m wide and up to 0.2m high.
This bank is located close to the southern edge of Santon Warren (NHER 54065). As a result, it may have been created to define the boundary of the warren.
