Full description
Hankin, C. F., 1977-1979, Harford Parish Checklist (Worksheet). SDV149931.
Reave on the south-west slope of Lower Piles to the north-east of Harford Moor-gate. A low earth and stone bank with the characteristics of a reave. After 26 metres form the north-east the reave curves towards the west until at circa 110 metres from its beginning it reaches a cairn at circa SX65056010. Below the cairn the reave takes a still more westerly direction. The ground here has been well cleared of stones, the grass is short, and the reave becomes no more than a series of isolated hummocks, until at about 290 metres from the cairn it fades out altogether.
