Monument record MDO39378 - Prehistoric ditches, Milton Abbas

Three intermittent and roughly parallel linear features visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs taken in 2005. Interpreted as ditches of probable later prehistoric date. The features were digitally recorded during the Dorset Upper Cern and Piddle AIM Project and were considered to be associated with an undated trackway.
