Romano-British field wall and embankment, 200m south west of Roystone Grange is a scheduled ancient monument in Derbyshire representing agricultural organisation during the Romano-British period. The site consists of field boundaries constructed as a wall and accompanying embankment, elements typical of the organised landscape management undertaken in the region during Roman occupation and the immediately subsequent period. The monument preserves evidence of the farming practices and land division systems that characterised Romano-British settlement patterns in the Derbyshire uplands. Its survival as an earthwork demonstrates the persistence of Romano-British field systems within the broader palimpsest of the local landscape.
