MMO1163 - Possible undated trackway at Lype Common (Monument)

The earthwork remains of a possible trackway of unknown date seen as two broken parallel ditches crossing Lype Common in a east north east to west south west alignment. The ditches can be traced for approximately 300 metres between SS 9493 3640 and SS 9520 3650. The feature was seen as an earthwork and mapped from aerial photographs. A number of old trackways can be seen crossing Lype Common from various directions and if projected would converge on one point at around SS 9533 3660.
