Description

An earthwork survey was conducted to inform proposed residential development on land to the west of Legbourne Road, Louth. Poorly preserved remains of medieval ridge and furrow were recorded across the surveyed field. The remains were visible as a series of parallel linear earthworks, aligned on a roughly west to east axis. The two southern linear earthworks, which were more pronounced, were interpreted as possible headlands. {1}{2}
