Section of Scots Dyke linear boundary 75m south west of Sandford House is a prehistoric linear earthwork located in Yorkshire. The monument comprises a length of the Scots Dyke, a substantial bank and ditch system that formed a territorial or defensive boundary in the landscape. Dating evidence places this earthwork within the Iron Age period, when such linear features were constructed across northern Britain to demarcate land or control movement. The section survives as an upstanding bank with associated ditch, preserving important archaeological evidence of early land division and landscape management practices in this region.
