Length of Car Dyke between Green End and Top Moor is a linear earthwork forming part of the Car Dyke system in Cambridgeshire. This section of the dyke dates to the Roman period and represents part of a substantial defensive or territorial boundary that extended across the fenland landscape. The earthwork survives as a raised bank with associated ditch, demonstrating the engineering effort invested in its construction across the challenging terrain of the Cambridgeshire fens. The Car Dyke system is considered significant evidence for Roman military and administrative organisation in the eastern English landscape.
