Full Description
Earthworks of medieval lynchets and a possible hollow way are visible n aerial photographs of this area to the east of North Willingham. At least three lynchets are intermittently visible, running along a north-west to south-east axis, parallel to the natural slope. The hollow way is located to the immediate west of these, roughly at the base of the natural slope. {1}{2}
All of the earthworks appear to have been removed by more recent ploughing, as seen on the Google Maps aerial imagery layer. {3}
