Full Description

Earthworks of medieval ridge and furrow, to the south-west of Calceby. Identified on aerial photography examined as part of the National Mapping Programme. {1} All of the remains on the eastern side of Calceby Beck appear to have been removed by more recent agricultural activity, and no trace of the former earthworks there can now be discerned on the Google Maps satellite imagery layer or on LiDAR data for this area. Remains on the western side of Calceby Beck do still survive, however, being visible as a series of parallel linear earthworks, all aligned on a roughly north-west to south axis axis there. {2}{3}
