Full Description

Area of large earthwork banks south & west of Canada Farm - shown as field boundaries on OS 1st edition map of 1836.
Not really visible on 1946 APs due to masking of vegetation & tree growth.
Banks appear to mark early enclosures of (pine) hedged field boundaries as partly shown on 1836 & 1880s OS maps (S1)(S2). More hedged boundaries are shown on 1836 map so may be more extant on ground - needs survey.
