Misc. Earthwork in West Sussex

A 106 m long Iron Age cross-dyke is located west from Chanctonbury Ring. It is in good condition, with 0.7m deep ditch and 0.5 m high bank. It is visible from the footpath leading to Chanctonbury Ring from the west.

It is possible that the cross-dyke is contemporary to Chanctonbury Ring (6th-5th century BC).
