Early twentieth century recreation ground. Although an earthwork continues to be shown at this point on 1930 and 1948 OS maps it seems likely that the landscaping of this plying field between 1903 and 1930 destroyed or buried evidence of the Roman Ridge earthwork that once crossed this area. Preston described the earthwork at this point in the 1940s as 'only faint' (quoted in Kronk 2004, 222). No legibility of former dyke or the piecemeal enclosures depicted on earlier mapping.
