Full Description
Undated linear ditches to the north of Horton Inn. The features comprise a long linear running NW-SE (240m long) which appears to cut through the eastern side of the barrow described in MDO5795. A second ditch runs perpendicularly northeastwards from the first towards the barrow described in MDO5779. The features may be of prehistoric origin, either trackways or boundary features, although a later historic date is possibke. The site was digitally plotted from aerial photographs during the Dorset Stour NMP.
