Sections of linear boundary dyke in Harper Dale and Holm Dale, north east of Horsedale Plantation is a prehistoric earthwork consisting of linear banks and ditches that demarcate territorial or administrative boundaries. Located in Yorkshire, the dyke system represents evidence of early land division and management practices typical of Iron Age or Romano-British period settlement hierarchies. The surviving sections preserve information about prehistoric and ancient land use patterns across the upland regions of northern England. The monument's fragmentary state nevertheless contributes to understanding of boundary systems that organised landscape management in the pre-medieval period.
