Description
A loose arrangement of ditches is visible as cropmarks on air photos. These features are located in the fields to the north, south and east of Holywell Grange Farm. The ditch at NZ3113 7338 appears to be a continuation of the extant boundary on the west of the road, however the date of these ditches is not known.
