These two prehistoric linear boundaries are located in the upland landscape of Yorkshire, approximately 680 metres south-east and 880 metres north-north-east of Pexton Moor Farm. The features represent significant evidence of early land division and settlement organisation in the prehistoric period. The boundaries, which survive as linear earthworks with associated archaeological features, demonstrate patterns of territorial arrangement characteristic of Bronze Age or Iron Age land management practices. The site's location on open moorland has aided the preservation of these archaeological remains, making them valuable evidence of prehistoric human activity and landscape organisation in the northern Pennines.
