Cross dyke 600m north west of Easthorpe Farm is a linear earthwork of Iron Age date located in Yorkshire. The monument comprises a substantial ditch with accompanying bank, characteristic of defensive or boundary dykes constructed during the later prehistoric period. Such dykes served practical functions as territorial markers or defensive barriers within the Iron Age landscape, reflecting the social and economic organisation of communities during this period. The survival of the earthwork demonstrates the persistence of Iron Age land management strategies in the archaeological record of northern England.
