Prehistoric linear boundary on Stonygate Moor, 550m west of Warren House Farm is a prehistoric earthwork surviving as a linear ditch and bank system on the upland moorland of Yorkshire. The monument dates to the prehistoric period, though the precise chronology remains subject to archaeological interpretation characteristic of undated linear boundaries of this type. The feature represents an important element of the prehistoric landscape organisation of the upland zone, functioning as a territorial marker or field boundary within a palimpsest of later land use. The site's survival on moorland, away from intensive post-medieval agricultural disturbance, has allowed the preservation of this significant archaeological feature.
