Summary
A curvilinear bank is visible as a subtle earthwork on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2004 and 2013 north of Higher Sellick. It is interpreted as a field boundary of medieval to post-medieval origin that passed out of use by the mid-19th century. Alternatively, the earthwork may be of modern agricultural origin.

A curvilinear bank circa 105 metres in length and between circa 4 and 6 metres is visible as a subtle earthwork on visualisations derived from lidar data captured in 2004 and 2013. The bank is orientated approximately north to south on a gentle south-east sloping field north of Higher Sellick.
The earthworks do not correspond to any features depicted on the available historic or modern maps. The historic landscape is characterised as medieval enclosures based on strip fields.
The bank is interpreted as a former field boundary of medieval to post-medieval origin that passed out of use prior to circa 1840. Alternatively, the earthwork may be of modern agricultural origin.
