Full Description

Earthworks of three possible medieval or post-medieval stack stands, to the north-east of Eskham. Visible as a group of two sub-circular ditched features, measuring between 6m and 8m in diameter. Two of the features are grouped close together, with the third approximately 120m to the south. Identified on aerial photography examined as part of the National Mapping Programme. {1} All of the remains appear to have been removed by more recent agricultural activity, and no trace of the former earthworks can now be discerned on the Google Maps satellite imagery layer or on LiDAR data for this area. {2}{3}
