York Historic Environment Record

A narrow strip of land defined by a ditch on each side with a raised area (in places cambered). The north-western section runing from Bad Bargain Lane has been built up in recent times by addition of ballast material and a roughly tarmaced surface. The central section is fenced off and given over to pigs. The south-eastern section has good tree and shrub cover and indications of a possible badger set. The feature coincides with a parish boundary.

Although this feature gives the appearance of a Roman road, it is unlikely to be one. All the roads and lanes in the surrounding area are similarly raised and profiled.

Looks to continue NW on aerial photographs (which doesn't follow the field boundaries shown on 1st Ed OS onwards).
