Monument record MDO45221 - Later prehistoric field system, Luton Farm, Tarrant Rawston, Tarrant Monkton
Please read our guidance about the use of Dorset Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
A series of curvilinear and linear banked features are visible as earthworks in a field to the east of Luton Farm on current Environment Agency lidar imagery. The features may be later prehistoric field boundaries, possibly of Iron Age to Roman period date, potentially forming part of a wider area of later prehistoric field system. However, they could alternatively be later field boundaries of possible medieval to post medeival origin. They were digitally plotted during the Dorset Middle Stour AIM project.
