Section of Scots Dyke linear boundary 600m south east of Park House is a medieval earthwork forming part of the Scots Dyke, a substantial linear boundary that runs across the moorland of the Pennines. The monument comprises a raised bank with an accompanying ditch, constructed as a defensive or demarcation line, likely dating to the medieval period when such boundaries were established to control movement and define territorial limits in the upland regions. The specific section recorded at this location represents part of the wider Scots Dyke system that extends across the Yorkshire landscape. This type of linear earthwork is characteristic of medieval land organisation and dispute resolution in northern England's border regions.
