Monument record MLI81948 - Post-medieval trackway, west of Normanton village
Summary
Post-medieval trackway, west of Normanton village
Type and Period (2)
Protected Status/Designation
- None recorded
Full Description
PRN 35395
During a site visit and watching brief, a green lane or trackway, flanked by ditches and hedgerows, was observed. The lane apparently led from the Lincoln-Grantham road, through Normanton, south of the church and across a small stream. Early maps (1756) indicate that it passed below a bridge beneath the Lincolnshire and Honington Branch railway (see PRN 35393), accessing fields at the edge of the parish. Three probable 19th century horseshoes were recovered from beside the southern ditch of the lane.{1}{2}
