Linear boundary earthwork 370m east of Oscar Park Farm is a prehistoric or early medieval linear earthwork located in Yorkshire. The monument consists of a substantial ditch and bank formation that served as a territorial or administrative boundary, typical of monuments constructed during the Iron Age through to the early medieval period. Such linear earthworks were commonly employed to demarcate land divisions, control movement across landscapes, or define the limits of settlements and estates. The site's precise dating and original function remain subjects of archaeological interpretation, though its designation as a scheduled ancient monument reflects its recognised significance to understanding Yorkshire's early landscape organisation and land use patterns.
