Section of linear earthwork 200m north east of Pasture Cottages is a prehistoric or Romano-British defensive or boundary work located in Yorkshire. The monument survives as a bank and ditch alignment and represents part of a broader system of linear earthworks characteristic of territorial demarcation or settlement defence during the later prehistoric period or Roman era.
