Full Description
Earthworks of medieval ridge and furrow in Manby and Little Carlton parishes, identified on aerial photographs by the National Mapping Programme. {1}
Large parts of the earthworks have been levelled as a result of modern arable cultivation. {2}
Traces of the medieval ridge and furrow at the north-eastern corner of RAF Manby were recorded in October 2011, during magnetometry survey along selected parts of the proposed Covenham Water Treatment Works to Boston Transfer pipeline. The remains were identified as a series of parallel linear magnetic anomalies, aligned on a roughly north to south axis. {3}
