Dyke 270 yards east of Dyke House is a linear earthwork situated in Yorkshire. The monument comprises an ancient dyke, a type of defensive or boundary linear feature common in the English landscape from prehistory through the medieval period. Such dykes typically served functions including territorial demarcation, stock control, or fortification, though the specific purpose and precise dating of this particular example would require archaeological investigation. The site's designation within the National Heritage List for England reflects its recognised historical and archaeological significance as a surviving example of linear earthwork engineering.
