Full Description
{1} The interior of the park is covered with ridge and furrow with well marked headlands and at least two trackways or hollow ways up to 12m wide x 1m deep crossing it. One of these runs from Moor End to Watling Street (SP753444 to SP745442), and the other from one of the bends on the Yardley Gobion road to Watling Street (SP750440 to SP747440). No date is assigned to these, though they appear to pre-date the park.
{2} Shown as a track in 1958.
