Full Description

Earthworks of medieval ridge and furrow, to the west of Doddington Hall. Visible as several adjoining blocks of parallel linear earthworks, mostly aligned on a north to south axis, but with one block aligned east to west. Identified on aerial photography examined as part of the National Mapping Programme. {1} Most of the earthworks appear to have been removed by more recent agricultural activity, as seen on recent lidar data, though some small portions within the later tree avenue of Doddington Park still survives. {2}
