Abstract:		 Recording of 8 historic boundaries , breached during the construction of a pipeline across Ridding Down and of two prehistoric pits exposed during the excavation of the pipe trench. No clear evidence was found of a fossilised Bronze Age reave system in the fields around themedieval farm of Broomage, nor of reaves continuing northwards onto the open moorland. The field boundaries investigated appeared to be almost exclusively medieval in origin, with the exception of boundaries which were of postmedieval date. Boundaries 7 (trench 4) and 8 (trench 5), previously thought to be of likely prehistoric origin, appeared to be part of a medieval field system that had retreated southward, possibly due to the poor soil on this part of the down. However, in the absence of any finds or other dating evidence, the boundaries were dated by their nature and character alone. Prehistoric activity along the course of the pipeline route was confined to two small pits, which were fully excavated and recorded before the excavation of the pipe-trench.
