Full Description
A group of linear and curvilinear ditches are visible as earthworks and cropmarks on aerial photographs of fields to the south, east and north of Westwood Farm, Corfe Castle (1-3). They appear to respect the modern field pattern and are considered likely to be the remains of historic trackways. These features were digitally plotted during the Wild Purbeck mapping project.
