Full description
The fragmented earthwork remains of a boundary bank and flanking ditch within Beaudesert Old Park identified seen on lidar imagery. The ditch is on the northern side of the bank and they follow a sinuous course from the western end of the park to a point north-east of Castle Ring that approximately corresponds with the southern boundary of the Old Park. This boundary presumably formed a sub-division of the Old Park. (EAC, 26-Jul-2017) <1>
