A Bronze Age field system is a collection of agricultural land divisions and associated earthworks dating to the Bronze Age period. Located approximately four hundred metres south east of Ladybower Inn in Derbyshire, the monument comprises the remains of Celtic fields and boundary banks that represent a significant example of prehistoric land organisation and farming practice. The field system reflects the Bronze Age exploitation of the upland landscape and demonstrates the contemporary approach to pastoral and arable agriculture through the physical demarcation of land parcels. Such monuments are valuable sources of evidence for understanding settlement patterns, land use intensity, and the relationship between Bronze Age communities and their environment in the Midlands region.
