Description
A short length of road of medieval/post medieval date is visible on historic aerial photographs as earthworks and was mapped as part of the Aylesbury Vale Aerial Investigation and Mapping project (EBC18604). Located approximately 60m north of Thame Road, Haddenham, and centred at SP 73397 08707. Parallel ditches across ridge and furrow earthworks are visible in the 1940s. This area has been redeveloped for housing by 2009 but was still visible as an earthwork up to this time. This road appears to be shown on the Ordnance Surveyors’ Drawing of Aylesbury. (1-3)
