Type and Period (1)
- PARISH BOUNDARY ? (Medieval - 1066 AD to 1539 AD)
Protected Status/Designation
- None recorded
Full Description
Two parallel earthworks running from High Rake, near Windmill, into the village of Little Hucklow. (1)
It is unclear from the aerial photographs where these earthworks are or were. However, the type of fields appears to change at this line; to the east were cultivated fields and over the road was the start of the moorland. This may represent the medieval town boundary. (3)
