Name: | Field boundary southwest of Lukesland, North Huish |

A curvilinear earthwork bank, interpreted as a relict field boundary of potential medieval date, is visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013. The field boundary had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.

A curvilinear earthwork bank, circa 6m wide and northwest to southwest aligned, is visible on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2013. The earthwork, which has been truncated by a modern trackway, does not correspond with any curvilinear features shown on the mid-19th century Parish Tithe Map, or on later available historic maps, but is in keeping with the surrounding historic field pattern, which is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields. The earthwork is therefore interpreted as a relict field boundary of potential medieval date which had passed out of use by the mid-19th century.
