Section of Scots Dyke linear boundary and portion of field system 100m east of Whitefields Farm is a medieval and post-medieval linear earthwork and associated agricultural landscape feature located in Yorkshire. The Scots Dyke represents a significant territorial boundary, likely dating from the medieval period, constructed as a substantial linear ditch and bank system characteristic of boundary demarcation in northern England. The field system adjacent to the dyke reflects patterns of medieval or post-medieval agricultural organisation and land division, demonstrating the relationship between boundary infrastructure and contemporary farming practice. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork that provides evidence for landscape organisation and land management during its period of use and maintenance.
