Summary : A curvilinear field boundary is visible on aerial photographs as an earthwork in a field to the east of Slade Lane Cross, Kentisbury. It is most likely of medieval or post medieval date, and may be related to the strip field boundaries and lynchets to the north, recorded under NMR UID 925779. Part of the boundary is depicted on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map, suggesting that it was abandoned not long before publication in 1889. |
