Section of the Cleave Dyke system on Arden Little Moor is a linear earthwork of Iron Age date situated on moorland in Yorkshire. The dyke forms part of a larger defensive or territorial system of ditches and banks that characterises the upland landscape of the region. The monument survives as a substantial bank with associated ditch, reflecting the engineering effort invested in boundary demarcation or settlement protection during the prehistoric period. Its preservation on open moorland provides evidence of Iron Age land use and social organisation in the Pennine uplands.
