- Description
- A topographic survey recorded medieval field boundaries and it was demonstrated that structures in this area were post-medieval in date. Excavation showed evidence of a Romano-British field ditch system. A large ditch which is likely to have acted as a parish boundary between Skelton and Rawcliffe was found to date from the Anglian or Anglo-Scandinavian period. A field drain and ridge and furrow provided evidence of medieval agriculture and a ditch may have been a minor boundary ditch. The buildings of Manor Farm are likely to be of post-medieval date.
